Don't like getting too close to that snake before you send it to meet its maker? We put two of CCI’s handgun shotshell loads to the test, which are designed to deliver more energy at longer ranges than conventional offerings.

Last year CCI released its .17 HMR load with the Speer VNT bullet; the polymer tip helps to retain velocity at further ranges, and the thin, frangible jacket gives near-explosive performance on game. For 2019, CCI has expanded the line with two new offerings: the .17 Mach 2 and the .22 WMR.

New for 2024, CCI has extended the Pest Control Shotshell line to include an offering for the 10mm Auto cartridge, featuring 105 grains of No. 9 shot.

Much like its Vista Outdoor companion Federal Premium, CCI piqued the interest of media members at SHOT Show 2016, thanks to the introduction of its new Big 4 handgun shotshell. Big 4 is designed to extend the range and capabilities of downsized shotshells, using a payload of No. 4 lead shot.

CCI has released Clean-22 Hyper Velocity, allowing shooters the benefits of exclusive Clean-22 technology, while still maintaining the flat trajectories and power of an extreme-velocity load.

CCI's new .22 WMR Maxi-Mag Clean-22 Segmented Hollow Point uses an exclusive polymer bullet coating to greatly reduce copper and lead fouling in the barrel—without leaving a residue.

Savage Arms and CCI Ammunition—both of which fall uner the newly announced Vista Outdoors banner—will host a number of shooting sports celebrities at their respective booths at the 2015 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Nasvhille, Tenn.

.17 HMR has never been a caliber that's taken well to semi-automatic rifles, but Savage Arms might have rolled out a new answer at SHOT Show 2015's Media Day at the Range.
