I have a 3 screw .22 Mag only, 6-1/2" barrel. That thing is a powerhouse. I've heard it said that .22 Mag in a revolver is equal to .22 LR in a rifle. I'm here to tell you that's not true. A 40 grain bullet in a rifle-length .22 LR will do 1250-1300 fps; same bullet weight in a 6-1/2" .22 Mag will do about 1600 fps.
