There was an outfit in RSA showing jacketed .22LR. Nothing seen about it recently.

WW II .22 ammo was FMJ to avoid reprisals against US aircrew for non-Hague bullets in their .22 - .410 wilderness survival Savages. A coworker assigned in Burma said they even withdrew the .410 shotgun shells for fear of Japanese mistreatment of prisoners from flights over The Hump.

Makers of the American 180 .22 SMG had FMJ ammo made that comprised a .22 WRM shortened to LR length for greater reliability, but that is not quite the same thing.
