Can you shoot 22 wmr in a 22 lr rifle?
No. The case of a 22 WMR is longer than that of a 22 lr, so the cartridge won't fit in a rifle that is chambered for 22 lr.

Can you put a LR magnem cartridge in a 22?
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.

No. The R-101 was made in caliber .22 LR, which is a very different round from the .22 WMR. Later models of the High Standard Sentinel WERE made in .22 Mag, but if YOUR sidearm is not marked .22 Magnum or .22 WMR, do NOT try to fire them in it.
Can a JC Higgins model 88 revolver shoot the 22 WMR if its says 22 cal?
I don't think those revolvers were manufactured in .22 magnum. It will be marked, usually on the barrel, likely 22 lr or 22 s/l/lr for short, long, and long rifle.
Can you shoot long rifle bullets out of a 9422 xtr 22 magnum?
No. .22 LR and .22 WMR (magnums) are not interchangeable. The .22 Mag is ot only longer, but larger diameter bore and cartridge case. If the LR round fires, it is likely to split the case, and accuracy will suck.

No. .22 WMR (22 magnum) has a larger diameter than 22 LR, and will split the cartridge casing. Accuracy will not be good- bullet sort of rattles down the barrel.
What is the difference between 22 caliber LR vs 22 magnum?
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.
Is 22 WRF same as 22 long rifle?
No. The WRF (Winchester Rim Fire) is a larger diameter cartridge. It is the same diameter are the 22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rimfire) but is shorter than the magnum, It may be safety fired in a .22 magnum rifle, but not in a 22 LR. 22 LR ammo should NOT be fired in a rifle chambered for 22 WRF.
You have an Iver Johnson model 50 sidewinder the cylinder is long enough for 22 mag Can 22 mag be shot through this gun?
A 22 WMR cartridge should be a bit too fat for a 22 LR chamber. If the magnum shells will go into the cylinder but it is NOT marked 22 WMR, I wouldn't shoot it at all! If it IS marked as a magnum, don't use standard 22s.
What is the difference between a 22 mag and a 22 cal?
Length of the case. <><><> Despite the similar names, .22 Magnum also has a slightly larger diameter than a caliber 22. LR cartridge.
Can you shoot a 22 short in a Remington model five?
Yes- IF the rifle is chambered in caliber .22 LR (they were also made in 22 WMR and 17 HMR). They will not feed properly from the magazine, and would need to be operated as a single shot. Be sure to clean the chamber properly after shooting shorts- they can build up a ring of carbon fouling that will make chambering .22 LR difficult.

What bullets does a 22 revolver take?
A .22 revolver takes CARTRIDGES. Which .22 cartridge will depend on what caliber the revolver was made for.

There are a few .22 revolvers that have 2 cylinders, and can shoot either cartridge.
Can you shoot 22 mags in the 22 LR cylinder of a Colt Frontier Scout Q series?
Not just NO, but HELL NO!! Hopefully, you can't even squeeze the mag cartridge into the cylinder. *I'll take one step back on that. Are you talking about "mini-mags" or 22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rifle)? The mini-mags are just "Hot" 22 LR and should be OK if the gun is in good condition. But the 22 Magnum is a different cartridge.

The .22 Long Rifle is a rimfire, whereas the .223 Remington is a centerfire cartridge. The .223 uses a longer 'spitzer' projectile vs. the rounded projectile of the .22 LR. The .223 tends to be a heavier projectile, and has a much higher velocity than the .22 LR.

What is a 22 Rem Special cal for a Model 12 Is it different from common 22S22L or 22LR?
.22 Remington Special is Remington's name for the cartridge more commonly known as .22 WRF (Winchester Rimfire). It is NOT the same as .22 S, L or LR and will NOT chamber in guns designed for those cartridges. .22WRF was the "original" .22 magnum cartridge, introduced in 1890. It is now semi-obsolete, allthough CCI and others occasionaly produce a small ammount of the ammunition. The modern .22 WMR (Winchester Magnum Rimfire) was introduced in 1959. It is by far the more popular cartridge- .22WRF CAN be fired in a gun chambered for .22WMR, but not the reverse. Neither .22 WRF or WMR will chamber in a gun designed for .22 S, L or LR.
