remington Cbee 22
« on: September 27, 2009, 12:45:20 PM »
Just wondering if anyone else has tried them I orginally tried them in my marlin bolt gun but they were louder than the cci cb longs. Tried the remingtons today in my remington 550-1 and to my suprise they actually work the action and cycle just fine. My marlin and the cb longs will continue to take care of yard pests but the cbee and remington will make a fun camp gun.

I just tried somwe last week in my ChiCom CZ copy. They are more accurate than the CCI and Aguila renditions. Also the HP seems to actually work. I posted some large pears from my tree on my back fence (about 35 yards) and gutted them with single shots. They are expensive but they seem good.

I used them to dispatch a skunk that was terroizing my carport one night.  Well, actually, the dog was terroizing the skunk, which was then being fairly obnoxious.  They worked perfectly in the situation as I killed the skunk with one shot and the shot did not pass through to damage anything else.

I did a short accuracy check on them and they shot two distinctly separate groups (about an 1-1/4" apart) in the rifle I was using in the test.  I'd say they have enough umph for dispatching varmints at short range and enough accuracy for 50 feet or so.  I like them better than anything else comparable in the market.  They are long rifle size and seem to have a smidgen of powder although I haven't pulled any bullets to confirm that.   They make more noise than the CCI CB longs.

  I've been shooting them in my Woodsman, and i really like them.  I'm going to buy up a few more boxes to have around for a low noise, short range small game dispatcher.

  They appear to be the Yellow Jacket bullet, with some cuts in it to make it expand at the lower velocity of this round.  As a game killer, i find the Viper/Yellow jacket bullet an EXCELLENT design and this is just more of the same.

Is that how they are spelled, Cbee? Are they in a short or LR case?

  Yes that's how it's spelled, and it's on the LR case.
