Huh.
Yeah, that would probably work as a field-expedient solution.
I'm assuming...let's see, you'd take a 22Mag shell, cut the whole rim area off, shove the 22LR (or L or Short) into the back. Load and fire it normally in a 22Mag cylinder.
The bullet *should* fly down the inside of the 22Mag shell.
Emphasis on "should". If the 22Mag shell should slip forward first and "pinch off" the business end of the cylinder bore...that could get ugly. Probably won't happen though, you'd have more friction in the brass-to-steel junction than in the lead-to-brass.
Separating the 22LR shell from the 22Mag shell afterwards would be a mess and maybe impossible. But...if you've got a stash of fired 22Mag empties and have nothing but 22LR available to shoot, well maybe you don't care about re-using the 22Mag shell "adapters". Even if they're a one-shot deal, who cares, you can continue to put small-game meat on the table while snowed in for the winter or whatever the deal is...
