How Quiet are CCI Quiets? Decibel Meter Sound Test Review & Air Gun

This video tests Federal Premium's .22 LR Punch ammunition, designed for handguns, in rifle-length barrels. Despite its intended use for shorter barrels and defensive scenarios, the testing in ballistic gelatin shows significant energy transfer, making it a viable option for shooters who prefer less recoil. The discussion includes JJ Reich from Federal Premium and highlights the ammunition's potential for specific users, like elderly individuals who might not handle larger caliber firearms. The video also touches on other Federal Premium offerings and promotes NRA membership.

This review covers the Ruger SR22P, a .22 LR pistol initially purchased as a first firearm due to its beginner-friendly design and manageable recoil. The speaker details its features, including a 10-round magazine capacity and hammer-fired action. Despite the SR22 series being discontinued, the speaker acquired a 'long slide' variant, comparing its trigger pull and physical characteristics to the original model. The review highlights the pistol's reliability over extensive use.

SPN Firearms provides a critical review of the Taurus Tuc22 .22 LR pistol, initially deeming it unreliable and inaccurate. While performance improved at closer ranges during a shooting test, the instructor, with extensive experience across various firearms, suggests better .22LR options exist for self-defense and recommends alternative calibers for improved reliability.

This video likely investigates the perceived loudness of different bullets, exploring the acoustic differences between various firearm calibers or projectile types. Without a transcript, the exact firearms, calibers, or scenarios used for comparison are unknown, but the title directly suggests an audio-focused analysis of projectile sound.

This review provides an in-depth look at the Ruger LCP II LiteRack in .22 LR, tested under extreme cold conditions (-13°F). The instructor highlights its exceptionally light recoil, ease of racking (LiteRack feature), and reliable performance with various ammunition types. It's presented as a viable option for everyday carry, especially for those prioritizing manageable recoil and ease of use over raw power, with comparisons to .38 Special and .45 ACP firearms.

This guide explores 10 revolvers that can realistically be found for under $200, focusing on options suitable for older shooters. It emphasizes the importance of patience in finding used models and details specific features like action type, caliber, barrel length, and weight for each firearm. The review highlights how certain designs, like single-action .22 LR revolvers or all-steel .38 Specials, can be more manageable for those with physical limitations, while also considering factors like recoil and ease of operation.

This video compares the terminal performance of five common pistol calibers (.22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP) by shooting watermelons. The test demonstrates a significant increase in destructive power from .22LR up to .45 ACP, with the larger calibers causing more explosive expansion and fragmentation. Specific hollow-point ammunition from Speer, Aguila, and Underwood was used, highlighting the importance of bullet construction for terminal ballistics.

Buckeye Ballistics conducted a comparative test of common pistol calibers (.22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP) against concrete blocks. The host, demonstrating significant firearm and ballistics knowledge, emphasized extreme safety precautions due to ricochet risks. The test revealed that while larger calibers showed more damage, none could fully penetrate the concrete block's second wall, suggesting limitations for self-defense scenarios against hardened barriers.

This Taurus TX22 review details its performance with various .22 LR ammunition. While initially reliable with CCI Mini-Mags and cycling standard velocity rounds well, it encountered malfunctions with sub-sonic and high-velocity loads. A catastrophic failure occurred due to a squib load followed by a second shot, resulting in a bulged barrel and damaged magazine.

This video compares the terminal ballistics of .22LR, .22WMR, and .17HMR rimfire cartridges using cantaloupes as targets. The .22LR showed a clean pass-through with minor damage, the .22WMR caused an explosive front-face disintegration, and the .17HMR, despite its speed, disintegrated internally with no exit. The test highlights how different rimfire rounds perform on soft tissue simulants.
