Like u said they won't cycle in a semi auto but work great in a bolt action. A squirrel at 30 yards wouldn't be a problem. Great quiet pest control round.

Great quiet pest control round.There's a bit of a difference with the cci quiet. The cb's launch a 29 grain (if memory serves) while the cci quiet throws a 40 grain (again, I think) at a slightly higher velocity. This is strictly comparing the cci brand ammo though. The Remington cb's were a 40 grain I think but again, don't quote me on that. I'm surprised you were killing coins with them honestly. I've yet to even find them to be even remotely adequate for trapping purposes when discussing coons. Foxes are fine as they're much less dense in the skull. A coon, well, they can take a licking. Please don't take this as me being smart or argumentative in any fashion as that's not the intent. Just voicing my issues with the cb's.
