When you need a rimfire load that balances low report, reliable performance, and clean operation for backyard pest control or precision plinking, choosing the right cartridge matters. Tactical shooters and land managers appreciate ammo that keeps barrels and actions cleaner while delivering useful energy and accuracy at extended rimfire ranges.

CCI SPECIALTY CB LONG is built for that role. This load is notably more effective at longer ranges on pests while remaining no louder than many pellet rifles, making it ideal for use where noise control matters. It employs CCI’s cleanburn propellants to reduce foul in the action, and Surefire CCI priming for consistent ignition. The reusable plastic box with a dispenser lid keeps rounds organized and easy to access in the field. Shop this product

Performance and Practical Applications

As a rimfire ammo option, CCI SPECIALTY CB LONG offers accurate trajectories that make it a solid choice for both plinking and small pest engagement at longer ranges than typical subsonic .22 loads. The emphasis on reduced report—comparable to pellet rifles—means you can operate in semi-urban or farm settings with a lower likelihood of disturbing neighbors. The cleanburn propellant helps preserve your rifle’s action and barrel life, reducing maintenance intervals.

Reliability and Packaging

CCI’s Surefire priming provides consistent ignition shot-to-shot, which shooters will notice in tighter groupings and predictable performance. The reusable plastic box with a dispenser lid is practical: it protects rounds from damage, simplifies carry, and allows quick one-handed access during field work.

Price is competitive at $12.99 per box, positioning this load as an economical choice for weekly target sessions or seasonal rodent control. The brand Cci and model designation Various reflect the manufacturer’s wide rimfire expertise and available load variations within the lineup. View product details and pricing
