CCI 22LR, SV, LOt E09FA02
So I just purchased some CCI, SV 22LR ammunition and it looks great. I shooting Bullseye and my pistol likes CCI SV. When I look up the date of manufacture it says 2000. Can that be right? I got this information from the forums but I just can't imagine it being that old.
And maybe a better product than current manufacture? Its their #35 product and years ago that was the ammo to purchase rather than the plastic BOXES.
Give me your thoughts please.
Thanks!!

Dark blue box? Good stuff.
Light blue? Not so much

Hey Jim!!
I have some of the Dark Blue box and it has better groups but the bullet hole is much smaller. The light blue box has much bigger holes in the target and it shoots great if I perform my duties. I don't really know why the holes are bigger but I have a tendency to shoot the light blue box.???

This is what I have from a post at rimfirecentral- CCI SV Lot numbers... | Rimfire Central Firearm Forum
I just went backward from the 1995 for the years to 1971, I am not positive there was not a change in lot number usage in 1995.

CCI has been so up and down for me. I have 5 cases that I randomly pull from. They range from early Obama era through now. The dark blue lots ransom significantly tighter. In some cases by inches. It’s also hard to track because two of the cases have zero lot numbers on them.

They're probably there, but can be very difficult to see. They are lightly embossed into the box, sometimes on one of the flap ends, sometime on the outside bottom of the box. Hold a bright light at a low angle so you can see the shadow of the embossing.

Thanks Shanneba!! That helps and it is apparently new production and it looks like a good product. I shot this off a rest and it shot about an inch group at 25 yards. That will fill the 10 ring on a 25 yard Bullseye target. And that seems better than my previous CCI ammo. So that helps me with confidence in their product. To me it's practice ammo and SK for matches.
I still prefer SK Pistol match and SK Rifle match because it shoots much better and very consistent. I'm willing to pay the extra $$ for SK Pistol Match groups that are half the size and easier to shoot timed and especially Rapid Fire.
I happened to be wandering on Champions Choice website and they had CCI Standard Velocity in the DARK BLUE box and i questioned if this was a gimmick to get orders. I was told that it was their NEW Packaging in a pretty box which said to me it's the same ammo. Maybe an attempt to confuse us Bullseye shooters. I tried to buy some but it was going to camp Perry and was already loaded on their trailer. I was told they will sell out soon but will get more but may be awhile. I will buy some just to see if there is any difference??
Thanks!!

I think Midway and Champions Choice might have an older CCI box pictured.
All the CCI SV in 50 round boxes I have, (bought from 2021-2023), are in this type of box as shown on the current CCI web page.

I have a case of New CCI I ordered from the CMP , that batch was god awful. The lot ends in 02. I get about 2 duds per 50 and now that I am shooting better I get one or 2 high fliers.
