The CCI Stinger 1,645 fps or the Aguila 1,750 fps? Is one cleaner than the other?
What about the Stinger HP and the Stinger segmented HP?I find that the CCI is cleaner. Aguila makes very good rimfire ammo, but I prefer CCI. I particularly like the CCI 'standard' sub-sonic .22 for handgun target shooting and the Stinger for hunting.

The buck mark is doing well on the Aguila and has done well with the Stingers too when I sighted those in.All rimfire ammo is dirty. I don't think quality is in question between these two. Just try them both and see which shoots the best.
This is true it does smell funny and has a little more kick n spark.Plus the Aguila has a distinctly odd smell to it when fired. I've heard it's something to do with the priming compound? The bith work pretty good though, depends on ypur gun.
My Browining buckmark likes the Aguila and is sighting fine with this ammo but before I had it sighted in with the Stinger ammo.Yeah the Aguila uses the Remington Ely priming compound and does have a smell and can be dirtier, but my mp15-22 loves the Aguila. The CCI shoots well, but the Aguila tends to be more accurate. Although ever gun has its preference.
Not necessarily true. They DO shoot faster and flatter. For example, Federal Spitfire runs 200fps faster than Remington GB hollowpoints out of a 5½" Single Six.Theres no bonus to shooting HV ammo out of a pistol.
Aguila also sells a solid tip bullet also rated at 1,750. Costs a little less than hollow point.Theres no bonus to shooting HV ammo out of a pistol. Buy standard volucity ammo and aguilla does have a hp ammo if thats need but regularsolid tiped ammo kills critters just fine with head shots and doesn't damage as much meat if shooting at the body. never payed attention to powder ordor, never bother me, just what shoots best . Pistol match loads would more than likely be the fastest in a pistol and darn sure the most accurate.
