Overview of CCI Ammo
Founded in 1951 by Richard “Dick” Speer in Lewiston, Idaho, CCI (Cascade Cartridge, Inc.) emerged as a pioneer in ammunition manufacturing. Inspired by his brother Vernon Speer’s success with Speer Bullets, Richard applied his mechanical expertise to produce high-quality cases and primers, starting in a small space within his brother’s plant. Initially focused on serving reloaders and competitive shooters, CCI quickly became known for its innovative approach to ammunition production.
Growth and Innovation
In the early years, CCI faced material shortages stemming from World War II but excelled by producing non-corrosive, non-mercuric primers. The addition of Dr. Victor Jasaitis, a Lithuanian chemist and explosives expert, marked a turning point. Under his guidance, CCI developed superior primers and manufacturing processes, solidifying its position as an industry leader.
The farm-turned-factory in Lewiston became a hub for innovation, featuring modern laboratories and specialized manufacturing facilities. CCI’s commitment to quality was evident when their primers set a handloader accuracy record in 1955 and earned government contracts specifying their unique standards.
Key Products and Innovations
CCI introduced the world’s first hypervelocity .22 Long Rifle ammunition with its Stinger line, cementing its reputation for cutting-edge rimfire products. Additional innovations include:
- Mini-Mag™: A popular rimfire cartridge known for reliability.
- Velocitor™: The fastest 40-grain .22 LR load available.
- Segmented Hollow Point and Silhouette: Advanced rimfire offerings.
- Hypervelocity .22 Magnum Rimfire: Another first for CCI.
These products, alongside improvements in primers, have made CCI a favorite among sport shooters, hunters, and reloaders.
Commitment to Excellence
Today, CCI remains a cornerstone of the Lewiston community, employing over 1,000 people and operating cutting-edge facilities, including a 37,000-square-foot addition completed in 2017. This high-tech expansion focuses on .22-caliber rimfire ammunition production, designed by CCI’s in-house engineers for superior efficiency and quality.
In addition to providing top-notch ammunition, CCI actively supports the National Shooting Sports Foundation and engages in advocacy for the Second Amendment.

If you’re putting this in a semi automatic weapon you’re some kind of stupid

Fired more than 300 rounds without any misfires or jams. My glock loves this stuff.

My S & W fails to eject and jams with other ammo. I’ve read many complaints of the same with that gun. Someone said the CCI Standard Velocity cured the problem. I tried them and, so far, I haven’t had a problem. Every round fired and ejected as it should.

Nothing to compare the bullets to. Shot 250 CCI LR Std Vel so far and had 2 misfires. Don't know if that's better/worse than other brands. It did provide the lesson on how to clear my BuckMark Bullseye from a misfire.

CCI makes some of the most reliable .22LR that I use. I was curious about the low-speed (720 fps) Quiet cartridges. Fired them today in a variety of handguns. Learned immediately that they lack sufficient power to cycle semi-autos. At 25 ft they were slightly less accurate than standard CCI. And I can't testify that they were much quieter than a standard cartridge. I didn't have a bolt-action long gun with me so I didn't get to try them at 50 or 100 yds. For basic close-in pistol plinking they're okay, but I'll stick with a louder (and faster) cartridge.

Ammo performed well. No misfires or jams. I have had target rounds from other companies that have both misfired and jammed, but this is not the case with the CCI rounds. Initial cost was a little high as I have found other ammo less expensive, but service and delivery was prompt.

This form sucks. I bought a box of CCI BLAZER for $9.25 I bought a box of CCI PISTOL for $14.00 . This form list them both as CCI 22 LR Ammo, I don't know which one I am reviewing here. . The cheap Blazer worked great in all guns I tried including a 60 year old Montgomery Wards auto which jams on most brands. . I did not see any benefit to paying the extra $5 for the Pistol Match. Both could consistently hit a quarter at 25 yards.

I bought these hoping they would perform better than the CCI standard velocity, they didn't. Well, at least not in my Tikka T1x.
