CCI SHOTSHELL 22LR 36GR #12 SHOT 20 RD 0039

UPC: 076683000392 MPN: 0039

The CCI Shotshell 22LR is a purpose-built rimfire cartridge engineered specifically for close-range pest control. Unlike traditional .22 LR rounds that fire a single projectile, this shotshell is loaded with approximately 31 grains of ultra-fine #12 lead shot contained within a plastic capsule. Upon firing, the capsule exits the barrel and breaks apart, releasing a dense spread of pellets that functions like a miniature shotgun pattern. With a muzzle velocity of around 1,000 feet per second, the CCI .22 LR shotshell is optimized for very short distances delivering the best performance within 3 to 10 feet, with effectiveness diminishing beyond roughly 15 feet due to rapid dispersion. Designed to meet the needs of shooters dealing with hard-to-hit pests, this rimfire shotshell works well in controlling snakes, rats, mice, and small birds in confined environments such as barns, sheds, and rural properties where minimizing over-penetration is critical. Often referred to as “snake shot” or “rat shot,” it provides a practical and efficient solution for nuisance vermin and even close-range plinking applications. However, due to its low penetration and spread pattern, it is not suitable for self-defense or larger game. The CCI Shotshell 22LR performs best in revolvers, bolt-action rifles, and single-shot firearms, offering reliable ignition and consistent patterns. While it can be used in some firearms, it may not cycle properly in semi-automatic platforms due to its unique capsule design. For those looking for a dependable, non-corrosive, and close-range pest control solution the CCI Shotshell 22LR is solid choice. *For safety, it should never be used in firearms equipped with ported barrels or compensators, as this can interfere with the shot capsule.*  FEATURES Purpose-built for pest control, Designed specifically for snakes, rodents, birds, and other small nuisance animals at very close range #12 lead shot payload, Contains approximately 31 grains of ultra-fine shot for dense spread and increased hit probability Plastic capsule design, Encapsulated shot breaks apart upon firing to create a shotgun-like pattern Consistent shot patterns, Engineered for reliable dispersion and improved effectiveness on small, fast-moving targets Low muzzle velocity (~1000 fps), Optimized for short-range use with reduced risk of over-penetration Effective at very close range, Best performance within approximately 3–10 feet Ideal for confined environments, Great for barns, sheds, and rural properties where safety is a concern Rimfire reliability, Uses dependable CCI priming and consistent propellant for reliable ignition Versatile “snake shot” / “rat shot” use, Commonly used for pest control and close-range plinking 20-round box packaging, Convenient for field use and storage Aluminum casing construction, Durable and corrosion-resistant Non-corrosive, new production, Clean shooting and safe for modern firearms Best in manual-action firearms, Functions most reliably in revolvers, bolt-action rifles, and single-shot guns Limited semi-auto compatibility, May not cycle properly in semi-automatic firearms due to capsule design SPECIFICATIONS Manufacturer: CCI Model: CCI Shotshell Aluminum 22LR 31Gr #12 Shot 20Rd MPN: 0039 UPC: 076683000392 Caliber: 22LR Shot Size: #12 Lead Shot Grain Weight: 31 Bullet Style: Shotshell Muzzle Velocity: 1000 fps Quantity: 20 Usage: Pest Control/Hunting WHAT'S IN THE BOX CCI Shotshell Aluminum 22LR 31Gr #12 Shot 20Rd
