Suppressed Walther P22 shooting steel at 100yds

While waiting on my Surefire 5.56 suppressor to cool down, I decided to bust out my Walther P22 pistol (caliber .22LR) with Tactical Innovations "Stratus" sound suppressor and try and shoot a steel plate 100 yards downrange. I was able to hit it 3 out of 10 shots using Fiocchi high velocity .22LR round nose ammo... not too bad, but not great either.

My buddy actually hit it 5 our of 10 shots using my last 10 rounds of CCI .22LR ammo of the same type as the Fiocchi mentioned above. But he only hit it 2 or 3 times using the Fiocchi 5 minutes later, so we're thinking that the CCI brand ammo is really that much better than other .22 ammo out there. The Fiocchi just wasn't consistent at all, and splashed all around the steel target in the berm. I've always been told that CCI was the best out there, and after this I strongly agree with that!

Semper Fi,
Paul

how much drop we talkin bout here., what u estimate your hold over was>?.. nice can

@MultiSr16 Thanks dude. From what I remember, I wasn't really holding over, just aimed at the high center chest. I also learned that when it comes to .22 caliber guns, ammo quality makes a HUGE difference. I know most shooters are very aware of that already, but I never really believed that. The CCI high velocity copper plated .22LR was very consistent & fairly easy for me to make hits with. But Fiocchi brand was VERY INconsistent. I'd aim at the same spot, but would hit all around the target.

@RetreatHell yea, cci is all i run anymore , i got a beretta 21a a few months ago and to insure i never had it jam in front of a crowd, i bought like 1500 rds of minimag, cause thats all shell shoot, so im good as far a rimfire ammo goes for now, dont kno if you remember, but i was on you to sell your stippled kac covers about a month ago, well u talked me into tryin it myself.,so i did, and i must say they turned out sooo perfect,they look like they came that way from KAC, im so happy,so THX RH

Hey, thanks for zooming in so we could see the targets. Really appreciate it!

[TheTxturtlelytiger]

for the walther p22's you should use a high fps .22 rounds , they work way way better than cheap ass rounds that jam.

[Mrbeastviolinist]

For all of u asking,it is 22. ammunition

[MultiSr16]
