Aguila Colibri is a 20 grain bullet @ 375 fps with 6 ft/lbs of energy (less than half the energy you can get from a modest .22 pellet gun).
Aguila Super Colibri pushes the same bullet to 500 fps and at 11 ft/lbs is just a few ft/lbs shy of an old Benjamin air rifle.
CCI CB longs are a 29 grain bullet @ 710 fps and have 32 ft/lbs of energy. Still not what I would call a power house but almost 3x's the energy the "super" has and more than 5x's that of the regular one. Also very quite, still not powerful enough to cycle a semiauto but feeds the same as LR ammo in everything I have tried.
Just for reference, Winchester super X is a 40 gn @ 1300fps with 150ft/lbs energy.
