Not impressed with this 10-22 handgun thing. Not for the price and not in the caliber. Maybe if it was in a Buckmark type...
Maybe if it had a 30 round mag.
 
It looks a lot like it might accept 10/22 magazines in .22LR, if so I know where a bunch of 25 round mags for it are stored, and I can almost touch them from here! :D:D
 
Actually, Blades, they DID make it to impress him. If you make a product for sale, you'd better impress people in your intended market or you're not going to be selling many of that item.

The thing is butt ugly, and in that caliber may be the single item most looking for a purpose that I've ever seen.
 
Volquartsen makes some very good stuff... At the top of the Ruger 22 field.
I wouldn't mind getting a .17HMR rifle from them. Utah has some good P-dog towns out in the eastern desert and this caliber would be just fine for that purpose. Perhaps ideal. And a Ruger 10-22 is a fine platform for the purpose as well. Perhaps ideal. So if your a P-dog hunter here in Utah or western Colorado, your probly interested in this caliber.
It's selling point is its high velocity out of a light rifle with minimal recoil.

But out of a handgun? It becomes pointless.

Are there hi-cap Ruger .22Mag magazines? No? Pointless.
 
As George points out, .17HMR is about .22mag length. No hi-cap .22mag mags out there. .17HMR would not fit in hi-cap .22lr mags.
