That said, I like the BAG motor for shooting as well. You're allowed 4, so ganging 2 together comes close or even exceeds the specs of a CIM. Keep CIM's for driving and climbing.
Double check that...
Mini CIM: http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexpro/mo.../217-3371.html
P/N: 217-3371
Size: 2.5” [63.5 mm] diameter, 3.36” [86 mm] long
Specification

Free Speed: 6,200 rpm (+/- 10%)
Free Current: 1.5A
Maximum Power: 230 W
Stall Torque: 12.4 in-lbs [1.4 N-m]
Stall Current: 86A
Mounting Holes: (4) #10-32 tapped holes on a 2" bolt circle

BAG motor: http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexpro/mo.../217-3351.html
P/N: 217-3351
Size: 1.59” [40.4 mm] diameter, 2.72” [69 mm] long
Specification

Free Speed: 14,000 rpm (+/- 10%)
Free Current: 1.8A
Maximum Power: 147 W
Stall Torque: 3.5 in-lbs [0.4 N-m]
Stall Current: 41A
Mounting Holes: (2) M4 tapped holes on a 25mm bolt circle


The Mini-CIM is bigger and more powerful than the BAG motor, although that power comes at higher torque and less free speed.
