22 Short Rimfire Ammunition 4 Items

The .22 Short, introduced in 1857, is one of the oldest rimfire cartridges still in use today. Known for its low recoil and quiet operation, it is commonly used for target shooting, small-game hunting, and exhibition shooting. While it lacks the power of .22 LR, it remains a reliable option for low-noise pest control and classic firearm enthusiasts.

Ballistic Performance: A standard 29-grain lead round nose (LRN) bullet reaches muzzle velocities of approximately 1,080 feet per second (fps) from a 16-inch rifle barrel, delivering around 87 foot-pounds of energy. Subsonic loads are available for even quieter shooting.
