The question can't be answered. Manufacturers do not releast that kind of data to the public.
There are revolvers made with 2 cylinders that can switch back and forth between LR and Magnum ammo. However, those have a barrel bored to magnum specs. Simply adding a magnum cylinder to a 22 LR is not safe.
10-100 USD or so
No such model.
Mistaken post...sorry. I have two revolvers, and this is the serial of the Smith & Wesson .357 Magnum. I'll repost elsewhere.
With the exception of a few revolvers made with interchangeable cylinders, the .22 LR and .22 magnum cartridges should NOT be substituted for each other. The .22 magnum is a larger diameter cartridge than the .22 LR. Firing a LR cartridge in a magnum rifle will result in a split cartridge case, venting of gasses, etc. They cannot be traded with one another.
The .22 Magnum wasn't invented until the 1960's, so any "1871" handgun chambered for it is a reproduction.
Remington has made many models in 22 magunm
One of many 22 single action revolvers made by the company
Not sure what an HW3 is, but if it is a firearm chambered for .22 Long Rifle, no, it cannot be "rechambered" to .22 Magnum. The .22 magnum fires a larger diameter bullet than the LR, and has higher pressures. The two cartridges do not interchange except in a few revolvers that have 2 cylinders- one LR, one magnum.
A .22 revolver takes CARTRIDGES. Which .22 cartridge will depend on what caliber the revolver was made for. A .22 LR can shoot Long Rifle or Short cartridges, and a .22 WMR uses .22 magnum cartridges. They do not interchange. There are a few .22 revolvers that have 2 cylinders, and can shoot either cartridge.
The .22 magnum is more powerful, longer and a larger diameter than the .22lr. The magnumcartridge does not use the "heel seated" bullet of the .22 LR, and USUALLY has jacketed bullets. The full name is .22 WMRF (Winchester magnum rim fire) and they do NOT interchange with .22 LR. There have been a few revolvers built with two different cylinders to permit switching between LR and Magnum.
Let's get the names straight- there are .22 Long Rifle (LR) cartridges, and there are .22 Magnum (.22 WMR) They DO NOT interchange (although there are a few revolvers with 2 cylinders that can CONVERT from one to the other). The.22 Magnum is not only more powerful, and longer, but it is larger in diameter than the .22 LR. SOME .22 LR firearms can safely short .22 Shorts, but LR and Magnum do not swap.
