This guide delves into the often-overlooked mechanical quirks and ballistic realities of .22LR rimfire ammunition. It explains why rimfire is inherently less reliable, discusses factors affecting performance like barrel length and ammunition quality, and offers solutions for improving consistency through proper maintenance and testing. The video emphasizes that while .22LR is an excellent training tool, its reliability issues make it unsuitable for defensive applications.

This video provides an expert-level ballistic gel test and review of the CCI Uppercut .22 WMR ammunition, conducted by Buckeye Ballistics. The review details the performance of this 40-grain Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) round, focusing on penetration and expansion through various mediums, and compares its effectiveness to other common defensive calibers. The instructor's authoritative tone and use of specialized equipment highlight the E-E-A-T demonstrated in this analysis.

This video tests CCI Uppercut ammunition from a 10-inch .22 Charger. The test includes chronograph readings, 25 and 50-yard group testing, and ballistics gelatin analysis. The ammunition is designed for handgun defense and shows moderate performance from the longer pistol barrel.

This video reviews eight new .22 LR ammunition loads for 2025, highlighting innovations in subsonic performance, hunting effectiveness, long-range accuracy, and self-defense viability. It showcases rounds like CCI Suppressor Max that fragment upon impact and Eley Ultra Gen 2 designed for extreme long-range precision, demonstrating the significant advancements in rimfire ammunition technology.

This video from Civilian Tactical demonstrates whether a car door can stop various .22 LR ammunition types. The host, exhibiting high authority through live-fire testing, shows that while some .22 LR rounds are stopped by the car door's interior panel, high-velocity options like the CCI Stangers can penetrate both sides. The test utilizes a Volquartsen VT2 rifle and various Federal, CCI, and Winchester ammunition.

This video reviews several new .22 LR ammunition options for 2025, highlighting their specific applications and performance characteristics. It covers CCI Suppressor Max for suppressed firearms, CCI Uppercut for self-defense, Winchester 21 Sharp with its innovative design, Remington Performance Wheel Gun for revolvers, and Federal Hammer Down for lever-action rifles. The presenter, Ted from Line45, provides insights into bullet types, velocities, expansion, and reliability for each.

This video provides a comprehensive overview of new ammunition introduced at SHOT Show 2025. Key highlights include Winchester's modernized 22 "Sharps" cartridge addressing 22 LR limitations, Hornady's 338 ARC designed for AR-15 platforms, CCI's affordable Blazer Brass JHP training rounds and specialized Rimfire loads, Remington's Core-Lokt Tipped Lever Gun ammo and upland/waterfowl shotgun loads, and Federal's expanded HST line with a new 44 Magnum offering and specialized hunting cartridges like the 7mm Backcountry.

This video debunks the '.22 LR pinball theory' through rigorous testing by a firearms instructor. Using ballistic gel, organic materials, and high-speed cameras, the host demonstrates how .22 LR bullets actually perform upon impact, showing expansion, penetration, and occasional tumbling, but refuting the myth of chaotic internal bouncing. The testing covers various ammunition types and firearm platforms.

This video explores the concept of the 'fighting .22 LR,' arguing its viability for personal defense, concealed carry, and survival scenarios. It highlights specific firearms platforms like the Ruger LCP II Light Rack, Taurus TX22, and S&W M&P 15-22, along with recommended defensive ammunition such as CCI Velocitor, Stinger, Uppercut, and Federal Punch. The instructor emphasizes the benefits of low recoil, high capacity, and lightweight ammunition for shooters with physical limitations or for stocking bugout bags.

This expert-level review from 704 TACTICAL thoroughly tests the CCI Uppercut .22 LR defensive ammunition, comparing its ballistic performance against CCI Stinger, Federal Punch, and CCI Velocitor using a Taurus TX22 handgun. The testing involved shooting through clay blocks to analyze penetration and wound cavity expansion. The CCI Uppercut demonstrated good penetration and energy dumping, making it a recommended option for defensive carry.

This video conducts a ballistic gel test of CCI Uppercut .22LR ammunition fired from a rifle, comparing its performance to pistol velocities. The test reveals significant differences in expansion and penetration when fired at higher rifle velocities, with the rounds showing increased fragmentation but also greater penetration through denim barriers. The reviewer notes the ammunition is marketed for pistols but explores its capabilities in a rifle platform.

This video details a ballistic gel test comparing CCI Uppercut, CCI Stinger, and Armscor Precision .22LR ammunition fired from an 18.5-inch Ruger 10/22 rifle at 27 yards through a heavy clothing barrier. The test meticulously records velocities using a Lab Radar chronograph and analyzes projectile performance in gel, focusing on expansion and penetration. The findings highlight significant differences in performance, particularly the lack of expansion from the CCI Uppercut in this specific test scenario.
