Getting back to the original question ...

Which was not, is the .22 WMR an effective cartridge ...

If the Aquila, with a 30 gr. bullet and an advertised velocity of only 100 fps less than the .22 mag groups well in my gun, then I am all for it. It would be nice to get that kind of performance without having to change the cylinder (I have the Single Six.)

Also, here in NC you can carry a .22 LR handgun in the off-season in the state-controlled gamelands (like the wonderful Croatan National Forest, just a couple of miles from here), but nothing else, including (for some darn reason) the .22 WMR, so that would be great also.

If it doesn't group well, then pffft.

Guess I'll have to get me some and try it out. Thanks for bringing it up, Art.
