I was looking with interest at a 1911 in 22 TCM and (with ammo running 45 cents and up) wondered if anyone reloads it; can you get bullets and dies? and what about loading data? Thanks. JD
There is also a Glock conversion from them, but it uses special, snubby little bullets that are short enough to fit in the Glock magazine. Be advised these ".22TCM9R" bullets are not available separately yet, and my friend's first attempt to use the regular .22TCM bullets short-loaded in the Glock kit failed to cycle.
Forget the conversion. 9r bullets are way shorter than the original. Dies are about $100 for the original and h110 works fine. Bullets and cases are available. I load for both mine,...
Had one for a while and after the novelty wore off, I sold it. Expensive to shoot and comparatively expensive to reload for. It's a pistol round that you have to treat like a rifle round.
I have a 22TCM Rifle and I love it. I reload it using lil-gun and the stock 40gn bullets, 2,900fps it's a nail driver truly, Hornady makes some 35gn ballistic tips for it too. As far as buying reloading supplies for it and extra mags go to Ammo Supply Warehouse they sell it all.I would suggest a Lee factory crimp and a universal expander. I think I pay $69 per 1k bullets and $89 for 1k Brass I use win small pistol primers.
Thank you for the info. I wasn't familiar with Ammo Supply Warehouse. The brass is $183 for a thousand. That, with the price of the bullets, primers and powder makes it seem better to just buy a thousand cartridges @ $360 and save the brass.
Question: are you using small rifle or pistol primers? Thanks again. JD
Yep , your right on the price . I normally buy 500 pieces of brass at a time when I buy bullets 1k at a time. I am getting several reloads from each piece of brass. I use Winchester Small Pistol Primers.
