    Hunting & Fishing Favorite .22LR hunting load.

    Re: Favorite .22LR hunting load. I have always used the CCI Mini Mags. They have always been accurate and pack a punch. My best shot ever with these was an open sighted 120 yard shot on a crow sitting on a power line with a really old, very accurate single shot. The Mini Mags have never...

    .308 stumper
