Can a 22 long rifle pistol shoot the 22 hornet ammo?

No. The .22 LR is a straight sided RIMFIRE cartridge. The Hornet is a bottlenecked CENTERFIRE cartridge. The chamber of a Hornet is MUCH bigger- you could not get a Hornet into a .22 LR chamber- and the firing pin would hit in the wrong place.

1. Take it to a gunsmith and have it checked out. 2. If the gun is marked .22 LR than it is designed for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. If the gun is in good condition, then that is the cartridge that the gun can shoot. Have fun.


Can you shoot 22 mini- mag in a rifle chambered for 22lr?

Yes, you can shoot .22 Mini-Mag ammunition in a rifle chambered for .22 LR, as .22 Mini-Mag is a type of .22 LR ammunition. However, it's important to ensure that your rifle is in good condition and properly maintained. While the Mini-Mag is a high-velocity round, it should function correctly in most .22 LR firearms. Always consult your firearm's manual or manufacturer for specific recommendations.


Can a marlin model 80 s-l-lr shoot 22 magnums?

No! The .22 magnum is different dimensionally. Do not attempt to chamber a .22 Magnum in a rifle or handgun designated for .22 s,l or lr. In most cases the barrel of a rifle or handgun will indicate the chambering!


Can you shoot 22 LR ammo in a 22 L rifle or pistol?

No. The .22 Long Rifle is not compatible with the .22 Long cartridge. Most .22 Long Rifle revolvers, lever and pump action rifles fed from a tubular magazine, and single shot rifles can accept .22 Long and .22 Short cartridges, but the .22 LR round is too long for a dedicated .22 Long chamber.


How do you know if you have a Stevens 22 Hornet or Long Rifle?

The answer is probably stamped on the barrel. Does it say .22 Hornet? Most likely it says .22 LR or .22 Long Rifle. Two other things: The Hornet is a center-fire cartidge, "regular" .22's, be they shorts, longs or long rifle, are rimfire, having the priming mixture in the rim of the cartridge case. Look at the firing pin and see where it is located compared to the case head. On the edge?(rimfire) or centered?(Hornet) The chamber for the .22 Hornet is larger in diameter than the .22 rimfire, as the Hornet is a bottle-necked case. A .22 rimfire case will fall down inside the chamber of a Hornet and be loose. IF YOU PUT A RIMFIRE CARTRIDGE IN AND IT FALLS DOWN IN THE CHAMBER BE SURE IT IS OUT BEFORE YOU PUT ANOTHER CARTRIDGE IN OR YOU WILL HAVE AN EXPLOSION AND PERSONAL INJURY!!! My apologies. I believe the 22 Hornet is a straight or tapered case. I was confusing it with the 25:20, which is bottle-necked. The 22 Hornet is a "bottle neck" case, the rimfire has a straight case and will fill the chamber of the Hornet.
