No, you cannot safely fire .22 LR ammunition in a Marlin Model 57 Magnum. The Model 57 is designed specifically for .22 Magnum (.22 WMR) cartridges, which have a higher pressure and different dimensions than .22 LR. Attempting to use .22 LR in this firearm could lead to malfunctions or dangerous situations. Always use the appropriate ammunition specified for your firearm.
