CCI Stingers in the Sportster?
« on: February 21, 2012, 07:56:53 AM »
Anybody here try them in your Sportster?  If so, how did they shoot?  Any issues with getting them to chamber, since the case is slightly longer than regular LR cases?

I just tried some in the chamber of my Sportster and they fit fine. I have not shot them out of my Sportster so I have no idea how accurate they are out of it....<><.... :)

Will do buddy but it may be a while, a few weeks perhaps, and how they shoot in my gun may not reflect how they shoot in your gun. Hopefully Jason will report back first on how they shoot out of his Handis.
How about it Jason, some accuracy reports if you get a chance?....<><.... :)

The case is longer but the OAL is not; they are made to chamber in any .22LR chamber.
