These little shells are my main starling killers around the yard, and I was getting very low on them. Hadn't had much success finding them until just the other day when I checked again a Midway.
The price sucks, but I loaded up with 500 of the Long version. Same power as the short -- 710 fps. They are pretty deadly out to around 25-30 yards. Way better than the cheap springers I've got around here.
It seems that people who do almost nothing, often complain loudly when it's time to do it.
Less noise than an air rifle.
Is your Starling rifle a Stevens #26 Crackshot?
BIG OR SMALL I LIKE THEM ALL, 577 TO 22 HORNET.
Thanks for the heads up, picked up a box with the rest of my order. As you mention they are hard to find. In the past I'd hit shows to get 22 ammo. Only way to find a decent selection (or was).

They and CCI Quiets have been steadily available on CCI's website direct, along with several other 22 loads. Free shipping with a purchase over $100 unless that has changed. Some loads seem to some in and out of stock.

Yeah, that rifle is a Crackshot. It's got the little Savage arms logo on it which I think dates it at post 1916. The bore on it is pristine, and it flat shoots. Acton is a little loose, but I've got plans for that. jdOriginally Posted by elk hunter
