    juice up a .22LR

    been thinking about pulling some bullets and add a 10th or 2 of ball powder.
    anyone tried it?

    Sounds like a great idea.

    I was just shooting some 22 the other day and caught myself thinking, "Wouldn't it be nice if these went a little faster."

      Or you can just be safe and shoot hyper velocity ammo.

          Please let us know where you shoot. I do not want to be there when you are.
          A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

            A buddy of mine tried that years ago...didn't go so well.
            I know it ruined the gun but not much else.. I will have to ask him again lol.
            BAD IDEA!

              I think it's called a 22 Mag!
              If you want change you have to put in your 2 cents, you can't just sit on the sidelines and whine.

                You'll poke your eye out!

                The big problem with messing with rimfires is that the brass is thin and soft so that the firing pin can crush it with enough authority to set off the primer. I wouldn't mess it with, especially when you can buy CCI stingers or Velocitor or whatever. And you know what? They pretty much feel the same while you're shooting them. If you're doing it for kicks... it's still a .22, sorry.

                If you want to screw around with loads just for the hell of it go get a Colt Walker or something. 60gr, no problem.

                  I was thinking of adding some smokeless powder to my gas tank. It's got nitro in it right? Poor man's Top Fuel. Anyone try it?

                    I thought I have seen it all on this forum, and then this topic comes up.

                          The .22 LR is the most engineered cartridge on the face of the earth with $millions spent since the 1800's . Watch out for that balloon head case,"you'll blow your face off kid"
