S scot0308 Inactive Apr 9, 2009 #1 Can you put 22 caliber rifle hollow bullets in a 22 caliber handgun?
D darrentxs New member Apr 9, 2009 #2 Yes, assuming the handgun is marked/chambered for .22 L.R. (long rifle). Be careful .22 magnum is a different story. Handguns that shoot .22 magnum are typcally revolvers with a seperate cylinder to shoot them.

F Flumph New member Apr 9, 2009 #3 Just make sure it's the right length, as the above poster said. A .22 WSM cartridge in a .22 LR chamber makes for not a very good day, if you catch my drift. But as far as hollowpoints being in a pistol barrel? Yeah, no problems there. Happy shooting!

D Dingoboyx New member Apr 10, 2009 #6 yes Most definately or else I have been doing it wrong for a long, LONG time
R Russ5924 New member Apr 10, 2009 #7 Don't think there is any way you can get a 22Mag in a 22 LR chamber Is just a tad bigger
S stevieboy New member Apr 10, 2009 #8 Don't try doing it the other way around, either. You can put 22 lrs in a magnum chamber but that doesn't mean you should.
