Description
A 500-round brick of Remington CBee 22 low-velocity .22 Long rimfire ammunition. These cartridges are loaded with 30-grain copper-coated solid bullets designed to produce minimal report and velocity while maintaining the accuracy performance of standard-velocity rimfire loads. Technical specifications printed on the reverse indicate a muzzle velocity of 720 f.p.s. and a 50-yard velocity of 640 f.p.s., generating 34 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy. Prominent verbatim markings include Remington CBee 22, Low Velocity 22 Long Copper Coated Solid Bullet, and the product code CB-22L. The packaging identifies the manufacturer as Remington Arms Company, Inc. of Lonoke, Arkansas 72086 and features the DuPont logo. The reverse side includes a comprehensive list of technical data and safety rules, stating that the ammunition will not function in semi-automatic firearms and is intended for use in modern firearms in good condition.
Condition report:
The original cardboard brick packaging exhibits shelf wear consistent with long-term storage, including crushed corners, edge fraying, and surface abrasions to the printed finish. The brick is currently sealed in a clear plastic wrap. A white inventory sticker marked 36604 is adhered to the front face. The ammunition itself has not been inspected due to the sealed wrap, but is presumed to be in unissued condition.
