Multiple .22 Ammo Rifle

[SB1964]

My dad bought my brother & I a Rem. 552 tube feeder in the early 70's. Pretty sure it shoots every .22 cartridge.

Yep I have a Remington 552 BDL tube feed semi auto shots shorts, longs & long rifle ammo.

I've got a Glenfield (Marlin) Model 25, takes shorts, long and long rifle. It's a bolt action magazine fed rifle.

Will this gun also cycle with Colibri sub sonic rounds?

shoot? sure. Cycle? no way. Those are pretty much just pellets.

Most semi-auto won't cycle the Aguila Colibris. And Colibri suggests against using them in rifle barrels because they might get stuck, although some people use 'em in their semi-autos and just hand-cycle the action.

Multi .22 ammo

I have an ancient (pre WWII) savage 6 that will cycle Remington HV .22 shorts in semi-auto. If it does not cycle operate the charging handle and cycle it manually.
The Savage 5 and its derivative the Stevens Springfield 86 will also digest .22 shorts with no issue.
The Mossberg 44 came with a screw in the magazine to allow cycling of shorts through the rifle.
I know for certain my Henry pump action older round barrel will not deal with .22 shorts.

High standard did make a "short kit" a replacement slide magazine and barrel set up for .22 shorts often used for rapid fire pistol competition.

You have to go back a bit.
Winchester M72 bolt actions shot 22 S,L,LR.
Winchester gallery guns(pumps) usually shot diffent length 22's.
Not sure about Winchester M74 semi-auto.
All of these are tube fed.
