CCI Copper-22 MeatEater 22 LR ammunition delivers reliable, non-lead performance for small game hunting, target shooting, and plinking. Built around a 21-grain hollow-point projectile engineered from compressed copper and polymer particles, this 22 LR ammo achieves a muzzle velocity of 1850 fps with the accuracy and consistency CCI is known for. Whether you're after squirrel, rabbit, or just ringing steel at the range, Copper-22 cycles cleanly through rimfire rifles and handguns without the environmental footprint of traditional lead ammunition.
The hollow-point design is purpose-built for small game—delivering consistent expansion on game-sized targets while the copper-polymer construction ensures clean, efficient operation. CCI's quality priming and propellant chemistry mean you get the same reliable ignition and velocity consistency in every round, so you can focus on shot placement rather than ammunition variables.
Available in 50-round boxes, CCI Copper-22 is a solid choice if you're hunting under non-lead ammunition regulations (common in California and other regions with condor habitat), or if you simply prefer the ballistic and environmental profile of copper projectiles. The 1850 fps velocity is well-suited to rimfire distances and small game energy requirements, and the inherent accuracy of CCI priming means less flyer frustration at the range.
| Caliber | 22 LR (22 Long Rifle) |
| Bullet Weight | 21 grains |
| Bullet Type | Copper Hollow Point |
| Muzzle Velocity | 1850 fps |
| Bullet Construction | Compressed copper and polymer |
| Lead Content | Non-lead |
| Rounds Per Box | 50 |
| Brand | CCI |
Yes. Because Copper-22 uses a non-lead copper-polymer projectile, it meets lead-free ammunition requirements in California condor habitat areas and other regions with non-lead mandates. Check your local regulations to confirm applicability.
CCI Copper-22 is standard 22 LR ammunition and will chamber and fire in any firearm chambered for 22 Long Rifle. Function will depend on your specific rifle or handgun, as some older or finicky firearms may have reliability preferences, but this is conventional rimfire ammo.
The 21-grain hollow-point construction is designed for small game hunting—squirrel, rabbit, and similar-sized game. It's also perfectly suited for target shooting, practice, and plinking. For larger game, a centerfire rifle is the appropriate choice.
At 1850 fps, this 21-grain projectile delivers the velocity and energy typical of quality 22 LR ammunition. Exact energy figures aren't provided in the product specs, but this velocity is standard for premium rimfire hunting loads and is more than adequate for small game at reasonable hunting ranges.
