Deep Dive
Overview
The CCI Mini-Mag 22 Long Rifle ammunition is tailored for shooters who demand consistency and dependability. Primarily used for target shooting and recreational practice, this ammunition is also well-suited for small game hunting. Its precise accuracy and reliable performance ensure that shooters can maintain confidence in each shot. The copper-plated round nose bullet design minimizes barrel fouling, allowing for extended shooting sessions without compromising firearm cleanliness. Whether used for competitive shooting or a day at the range, the CCI Mini-Mag remains a staple in the rimfire ammunition lineup.
History and Development
CCI Ammunition, based in Lewiston, Idaho has been a fixture in the rimfire world since the 1950s, earning a reputation for highly consistent priming and reliable ignition. Mini-Mag became one of its best-known offerings because it solved a common issue among rimfire shooters: unreliable cycling in semi-automatic platforms. By pairing strong primer quality with carefully tuned velocity, CCI established Mini-Mag as a dependable go-to round for general-purpose rimfire use.
The 3050CC variant continues the Mini-Mag tradition with a 40 grain copper-plated round nose bullet seated in clean-burning brass rimfire cases. This configuration provides a balance of velocity, reduced fouling, and broad firearm compatibility. Importantly, this specific 3050CC packaging is offered exclusively through Target Sports USA, giving shooters access to dedicated 500-round boxes and 5,000-round bulk cases designed for high-volume range use and long-term storage.
