I understand the reasoning behind .22 Magnum having a fatter case to deter numbskulls from shoehorning them into older, fragile revolvers......but, to me, the inability the fire conventional Long Rifle rounds through them (without swapping cylinders) makes the Magnum a no-go.
Why then has no gun maker attempted to do an even LONGER case rimfire? So long, in fact, that it would be impossible to cram one into a LR chamber- yet of the same outside diameter so that Long Rifles could be used interchangeabley?
Call it the .22 Maximum, or .22ELR (Extra Long Rifle), or such.........
If they made such a thing, I, for one, could hardly get my wallet out fast enough!
