... also Super Colibri and RWS BB Cap variants (BB vs CB?). Could I get a comparision between these 5 in terms of quiet, reliability, accuracy, etc. Will they cycle a Ruger 10/22? What's your most recommended rifle for low velocity and reduced noise cartridges? And favorite of these types of cartridges?
 
The Aguila 22LR uses the priming mix only to fire the 20gr lead slug, the others have powder in them. Having fired Aguilas and CCI CB Caps the Aguilas are quieter. I would guess that the RWS CBs would be loud, based purely on how much more "ooommppph" they put into their muzzleloading caps. None, however, will cycle the action on your 10/22.
 
Lefty is right (huh?)

Also, do not use the tiny short ones as they are a pain in the #$$ to remove from the chamber.
 
The Aguilas are quieter

than the CCI CB's, haven't tried the RWS, but have shot the other 2 out of every bolt and Martini actioned .22 rifle I own.
At indoor gallery ranges (50 feet and under), the little primer powerd loads are very accurate, shooting as well as the particular rifle they are launched from are capable of.
Shooters skill level shan't be mentioned:p :rolleyes:
Haven't tried either in any autoloader as there wouldn't be enough power to cycle the action.
