I have access to special .22 LR rounds that can basically be used in strong-enough rimfire guns. They have twice the power of the average .22. They are more powerful from a 6" revolver than standard .22's out of any rifle. Out of a rifle they have the same power at the muzzle as a .44 Special and at 100 yards these special jacketed bullets have the same velocity as a regular .22 LR at the muzzle! I am happy to pay a little more for 'em.

They are called .22 Magnums. "Niche" my arse.
