CCI Uppercut JHP 40grs 50St .22wmr

CCI Uppercut JHP 40grs 50St
The CCI Uppercut .22 WMR is a true innovation in the market for rimfire ammunition. For the first time, CCI offers a .22 Magnum cartridge that is uncompromisingly optimized for use in handguns with short barrels (2.5 to 4 inches). While conventional .22 WMR ammunition is designed for long rifle barrels and often produces massive muzzle flash with low performance in revolvers, the Uppercut utilizes a special powder and a 40 Grains JHP bullet without a wax coating. This ensures clean functioning and – crucially – reliable expansion even at the lower velocities from the handgun. If you are looking to buy .22 WMR hunting ammunition that maximizes the performance of your revolver, the Uppercut is unmatched.

Application & Target Group (EN)
Optimized for handguns (revolvers & pistols).

Hunting (Fallenjagd): The Uppercut fills an important gap. It delivers the energy and expansion from typical hunting revolvers (e.g., 2-4 inch barrel) that standard ammunition often fails to provide. The JHP bullet reliably mushrooms ("cauliflower effect") and secures the game in place.
Self-defense (Marketing): Marketed in the USA as "Defense" ammunition, this means for the German hunter: Maximum stopping power and energy transfer on target, less risk to the surroundings from over-penetration.
Function: The unwaxed bullet prevents sticking in magazines of .22 WMR semi-automatic pistols (e.g., KelTec PMR-30, Walther WMP), significantly increasing reliability.

Distance Recommendations
Ballistics for close range:

Sport Shooting (Precision): Optimized for 10 to 25 meters. At these distances, it delivers excellent results from handguns.
Zeroing: 25 meters point shooting.
Maximum effective range: Effective up to 50 meters from the handgun. The bullet is designed to expand even at subsonic or low supersonic speeds.

Features & Performance
The special feature is the thick jacket construction with "skiving" (predetermined breaking points) at the tip. This ensures that the bullet mushrooms even without the extreme pressure of a rifle barrel. The muzzle flash is significantly reduced thanks to the tuned powder.

Comparison & Alternatives
Compared to the Maxi-Mag (rifle ammunition), the Uppercut is quieter from the handgun, flashes less, and performs better. However, it sacrifices potential in the rifle.

FAQ
Can I use it in a rifle?
Yes, it is safe from a technical standpoint, but ballistically not sensible (too slow). It is a handgun specialist.
Is the bullet made of lead?
It has a lead core with a thick copper jacket (Jacketed), not just copper-plated.
