Rimfire ammo?

[kamlooky]

Those tiny-wee rimfire factory rounds that were really short.
What were they called and where would one find them?
I was given a handful many years ago and would like to find a source.

A .22 CB Short (just shorter than a normal short) or a .22 CB Cap (half the length of a short)?

The CB Cap is the top one:

"BB caps" is what we called them - have not seen them for sale for years

 

[kamlooky]

The CB Cap looks to be about what I remember.
Now where to locate them?

Thanks for the help.

I just bought some a while back at triggers and bows here in SW On.... expensive little buggers...

Ive got these. Theyre without a doubt the quietest shell ive ever fired. You can actually see the BB flying through the air. I havent seen any for sale in quite a while though.
