Like Joe, I've been using the CCI CBs for a long time. They shoot well enough in a regular .22 LR barrel to kill "unwanted guests" like rats and woodchucks at close range. (We also had a beaver start cutting down the woods around our house in NYS. And then he didn't. But I DON'T cop to that crime, although my children claim there was this old dude in camis lurking by the creekside one drizzly dawn...) We ran a decible test comparing my 28" Martini with CBs against my neighbor's fancy RWS 36 German air rifle and the air rifle was slightly louder.
