Is 22 magnum a viable weapon?

>>34026372
yes

Unideal but perfectly serviceable especially in a revolver where being rimmed isn't a detriment.

Get a PMR-30 if you want to use 22mag. One shot might not drop Jamal or Tyrone, but 10-30 probably will.

.22mag?

Sure, people post about their FN 5.7s all the time here.

If you were trying to make a point you've failed miserably.

Model 48 with 6 inch barrel is no slouch.
I'm sure there are other makes with longer barrels.

>>34026372
Normal .22 mag is trash out of short barrels.
For it's size class, .32 ACP does everything better.
Really makes all those pocket .22 mags seem fairly questionable

>>34026471
Does anyone make a pistol in 22 hornet? I imagine the velocity goes to shit in a pistol length barrel if they do.

3" barrels (4 inch in an automatic) give you reliable expansion with quality 22 mag hollow points.

What's insane about it?

I have a Marlin .22 mag bolt gun I haven't even fucking shot yet because ammo is such a bitch to find.

>>34026427
It can be distracting in a gunfight.

>>34026877
those raging hornets are rare as fuck though taurus stopped manufacturing them a while ago i think. I dig the grip even if it may be a bit tacky

>>34028407
try Walmart down here the ONLY stores that carry regular amounts of .22 MAG is Walmart of all places

>>34026372
No .22 magnum will slamfire when you load it

>>34026372
sure, if you are attacked by a groundhog

>>34028407
Fantastic expansion and penetration considering the size
