Marlin beat Winchester to the punch with their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leverguns.com\/articles\/malloy.htm\">Levermatic<\/a>. That design of which lent itself to simple modification to accommodate the new round\u2019s higher chamber pressure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 22 WMR essentially performs like a magnum version of the familiar 22 LR. The 22 WMR\u2019s casing (which is based on the 22 WRF) is wider and longer than the 22 LR\u2019s, and accordingly stores more propellant. This enables it to launch its 40 grain bullet out of a rifle\u2019s muzzle at approximately 1,875 fps. Compare that to a 22 LR, which achieves a muzzle velocity of about 1,200 fps, and you\u2019ll see at once the flatter trajectory and greater downrange energy that the 22 WMR offers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 22 WMR trounces the 22 LR\u2019s numbers at all points throughout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buckmasters.com\/Magazines\/GunHunter\/Articles\/ID\/2125\/The-Overlooked-22-WMR\">both rounds\u2019 effective ranges<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A magnum round typically generates greater recoil than its less powerful analog, but in the case of 22 LR vs 22 WMR it doesn\u2019t really matter. The 22 LR\u2019s recoil is so negligible that it remains negligible when increased.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other 22 WMR Attributes<\/span><\/i><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ammunitiontogo.com\/lodge\/22-wmr-vs-22lr\/\">22 WMR may beat the 22 LR in every aspect of performance<\/a>. But don&#8217;t forget &#8211; the 22 LR is still the king of affordable shooting. For that reason alone you may prefer to save money with the universally beloved older cartridge.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolt-action, pump-action, lever-action, single shot, semi-auto, revolver, and even 410 Bore combo &#8212; if you can conceive a type of firearm, you can nearly certainly find it chambered for 22 WMR.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 22 WMR has an effective range of approximately 125 yards. Nevertheless, there are absolute maniacs out there with the skills to increase its range to several hundred yards.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ever<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> load a smaller 22 LR in a firearm chambered for 22 WMR. While they may superficially resemble one another, the 22 WMR rifle&#8217;s chamber is larger.
