New from CCI is Clean-22 rimfire ammo, which uses a polymer bullet coating to reduce copper and lead barrel fouling.

There are two loads available in subsonic (blue) and high-velocity (red) versions. Both loads feature a 40-grain round nosed lead bullet. CCI mentions in their press release that the bullet has geometry that has been optimized for higher accuracy.

According to CCI, Clean-2 ammo "provides flawless cycling through semi-automatics and all .22 LR firearms."

Velocity for the subsonic round is 1070 fps, and 908 fps at 100 yards. The energy is 102 foot-pounds from the muzzle, and 73 foot-pounds at 100 yards.
