Cci stinger and CZ rimfire?

[dwight_Shrute]

Anyone have trouble feeding stinger switch their CZ rimfire? I'm goin to lebaron tomorrow to buy a shotty, and they have good price on cci stingers (51$ for 500) I've already bought 1000 rounds but have not been able to test and will not be able to before new year, so I have no idea if they will even chamber since its a slightly larger casing. Any CZ owners have trouble with these? I wanna buy before they raise price for new year... Thx all

They are the only ammo that makes the bolt more difficult to close. I don't use them anymore.

I thought it was just the one gun but tried on all of them (I own 3 CZ rimfires) and all are difficult to close with stingers.

Yea, that's what I was afraid of. Maybe I should hold off, but it is the cheapest price I've seen anywhere..

Im pretty sure the case on the stinger is just slightly longer than a regular lr case. I dont use them in my cz's either

What CZ are you using? My silhouette was the worst for everything(tight) but all my others have had no issues and seem to shoot all cci ammo well.

I have a CZ 455 American with 3 barils, it shoots federal well enough (22lr) (also, it hates the winchester and remington .22 that ive tried) though this month I've bought about 2000 rounds of CCI stuff (mostly stingers, some blazers, and then some 17hmr and 22wmr stuff, haven't tested those barils yet)

I read on another forum someone tried stingers and when he closed the bolt, it fired (he said it was tight and he had to force it to close). It's is why I'm not just trying to chamber one in my home to see if it closes... (Which is a bad idea anyway me thinks) live in city so can't do this outside my home either. Anyway I believe that special on stingers ends with the new year

No problems chambering them in my cz455. They shoot very bad though. It patterns like 6-8 inches at 50 yards with those.

I have a new CZ American and tried 333 win,525 fed, lapua match,cci sub sonic and eley match in that order. I only put 10 rounds of the cci sub sonics down the tube because the palm of my hand was getting sore from trying to close the bolt. All the rest were fine, i have some cci sv now to try?

My 455 has no problem with stingers, but they are not my favorite round. i prefer blazer for everyday fun.

my old brno mod 2 shoots stingers just fine.
