Does anyone expirienced think that that .22 lr Aguila Super Colibri ammo will hurt my ruger 10/22?

I know it may sound dumb but I just want to make sure before I use it. The ruger 10/22 is semi-auto, and these rounds fire from only the primer (advertised as very quiet, and can be used in home) These rounds do not have enough power to cycle the next round through, could this hurt my gun at all? also would it be better to only put one round in at a time instead of filling the clip. Please only people who know what they are talking about. Thank you.|||These often are called cb's or caps. Yes you can use them one at a time in your 10/22. You will simply have to manually cycle the bolt to eject and load. Your mag may work if you manually cycle the bolt and you don't get jams. If jamming occurs, simply use the single shot method without mag.|||You won`t have any problems. You will have to cycle the action manually for each shot. Won`t hurt a thing. Iv`e done it hundreds of times in mine.|||Won't hurt the gun, but be careful. If these are on the LR case, as you indicated, you merely have to hand cycle the action. If they are on a .22 short, you can get into all manner of grief. Watch that case length, please.|||Won't hurt the gun, but make sure the bullet exits the barrel each time. It's recommended for handguns only, but the 10/22 has a pretty short barrel.|||I bought some about a year ago and about half of it wouldn't work I returned the brick to the place I bought it from. To give it a fair chance I tried it in several different guns Do your self a favor and buy the CCI CB caps in long rifle|||Like Jennifer said, Super Colibri is recommended for handguns. I'd use it anyway, but...





Be sure that each bullet exits the barrel, no joke. Most will come out of the barrel at 500 fps, but you can get a weak primer. If so, you will be pushing the bullet out with a rod. To make life easier, lube the barrel in front of the bullet that you are pushing out.





This ammo won't damage your gun.





I'd just load up a full magazine and cycle the rifle by hand. The 10/22 is a pain to load one by one, into the chamber.|||Super Colibri ammo is marked for use in pistols. In a longer rifle barrel, there's apparrently a risk that the bullet may get stuck in the barrel. (Personally I don't know that I buy that theory, but I want to make sure you know that the manufacturer things there is a risk of it.) You've already figured out its not going to cycle the action. And since Super Colibri rounds use the .22 short case... Its not likely to work in the magazine if a .22 short won't reliably feed in the magazine.





If you simply want a really quiet .22 round which is safe for use in a rifle chambered for .22LR, I think you'd be better off getting the CCI CB Long. The case length is the same as a .22LR round, but the bullet is the .22 short's. (This removes the issue of leading/fouling in the chamber and throat erosion.) Muzzle velocity and energy are a bit higher than the Super Colibri (at around 700 fps and 30 fpe). It still won't cycle a semi-automatic, but at least you won't have to worry about it getting stuck in the barrel.|||noop|||no i didnt use ever, i dont know
