Do you lose accuracy shooting a 22 lr in a 22 magnum?

The OD of the mag case is larger than the LR. So LR case will usually split. The bullet of the LR is .222 and the mag is .223 I think thats right. Anyway don't do it.

Well, there you go. The fact that Ruger makes a separate cylinder for 22 long rifle tells me that you shouldn't try to shoot them in the 22 Mag cylinder.

The thing is, you are a handloader and should know these things. Go to your room!

I should have learned that since I've reloaded hundreds if not thousands of 22 magnum. Can I come out of my room now PLEASE?
