CCI .22 LR Pest Control Shotshell 20-Round Box
CCI .22 LR Pest Control Shotshell is the handloader's favorite solution to the perennial problem of pests at close range where rimfire bullets are too penetrating and full shotgun shells are overkill — a rimfire cartridge containing a payload of #12 shot that produces a spreading pattern effective against snakes, mice, rats, and sparrows within 8-10 feet. The plastic capsule containing the shot column is seated in a standard .22 LR case and cycles reliably in bolt-action and single-shot platforms; semi-autos typically won't cycle from the reduced recoil but single-shots and revolvers run them perfectly. The #12 shot — essentially lead dust in granular form — delivers a pattern at 6 feet that covers a 6-8 inch diameter, enough to reliably eliminate rattlesnakes, cottonmouths, and various small vermin without penetrating far enough to create a ricochet hazard in confined spaces. Packaged 20 rounds per box, these make an indispensable addition to a ranch, farm, or garage pest-control kit.

When you take a closer look at the needs of shooters, you find there are several unique options that make sense. Rimfire and centerfire pistol shotshells are perfect examples, and set CCI apart from everyone else. Pests can be hard-to-hit problems. CCI's shotshell options are excellent answers at short range. CCI(R) also has an industry exclusive in the Pest Control/Specialty line 22 WRF with a jacketed hollow-point bullet. This load combines a 19th century favorite with 21st century technology and is ideal for old barrels. When pests present themselves a bit farther out, the CB Long's accuracy makes it an ideal choice. This caliber is also fun for plinking.
