Ok, I understand that. I have both kinds of rifles. My question is: can I shoot a .22WRF in a rifle chambered for .22LR?
My post 19 said clearly that you cannot use a WRF in a rifle chambered for .22LR.
There is no danger at all in firing a WRF in a magnum chamber. The WRF is a much lower pressure round. I am going on memory and could be wrong but I think the WRF uses bullets with a .224 diameter. They are pure lead and often shoot extremely well in .22 Mag guns which I think use a .223 diameter, same as many centerfire .22’s.
I once did a “kitchen table” rechambering of my old Remington 514 to WRF. It worked and was far more accurate than it was in .22LR but that actually was a bit dangerous.
