... that a bullet could not pass never mind the casing behind it.

I'm sure Tom know this but it wasn't something I realize till a while back.

The bullet and the cartridge case have the same diameter in a .22lr unlike "regular" cartridges.   Another one that comes to mind is the .38 Short Colt (the real one, not the ones I reload with .357 bullets).

So if the bullet will fit in a chamber so will the case on a .22lr

Alf, the round nose of the lead 22 would not pass all the way in.

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
