Yes, it's a little larger so if you try and fire any sort of .22lr in a .22 mag chamber they tend to split. Healed lead projectile(even if cover washed) v jacketed pill is the reason.

I'm glad this new ammo is around, and hope it stays around even though I can't see me using much of it.

.22mag is now a very versatile caliber compared to just a few years back, hell 17hmr almost made it obsolete untill they came out with the 30g plastic tip ammo.

Now you can go out after a bunny and have three sorts of ammo on you to cover close stealthy bunnys, right out there(for rimfire) bunnys and goats/wallaby/small close deer
