THIS AIN‘T YOUR PAWPAW‘S 22 MAGNUM
Over the past several years, interest in rimfire shooting has soared, especially in the precision rifle world. With the evolution of the NRL22 series, and now with the Precision Rifle Series introducing its own precision rimfire series, the demand for top-tier rimfire rifles is growing. But not just in the competition world — the 22 Magnum was introduced by Winchester in 1959, and for many years, the 22 Magnum cartridge has remained a favorite of sportsmen. This cartridge is similar to the 22 LR, but has a longer case and more propellant, meaning it hits with more “oomph” than its little brother. This makes the cartridge perfect for hunting all sorts of small game, even coyotes, at shorter ranges. The 22 Magnum is even used by some for self- and home-defense, so it’s a bit more versatile than you might think.
