We didn’t want it to have to come to this, but we’re instituting a draft. Consider yourself conscripted into the BulkAmmo.com Varmint Hunting Army. That means you’ll have to order a 3,000-round case of CCI Mini-Mag 22 LR ammunition. But don’t worry – we won’t require you to do anything else.

This round is a shooter’s dream and a varmint’s worst nightmare. Each cartridge is decked out with a lighter 36 grain projectile, which will achieve a high muzzle velocity of 1,260 fps out of a rifle’s long barrel. Semi-automatic pistols and rifles alike both feed copper-plated bullets easily. The accurate little bullet chugs along a flat trajectory until it finally collides with its target. If that target happens to be of the varmint variety, the CPHP’s nose cavity will initiate deadly terminal expansion.

To be sure, you can also use CCI’s original offering of 22 LR for target shooting and leisurely plinking. No matter what, you’re bound to approve of the Idahoan company’s sensitive rimfire primers, low-fouling propellant and highly uniform brass shells.
