The results were surprising to me. The 22 magnum out of a 4 inch taurus revolver clocked 1250-1300 fps. The 22 LR stinger's clocked 1260-1350 fps. It seems that the 22 magnum loses a lot of muscle out of a pistol barrel, the 22 LR stingers matched the 22 mag, out of my Ruger 22/45 5" barrel.
For reference, my Marlin 22 magnum rifle with a 24" barrel was clocking 1900-2260 fps. Big difference! I think I'll stick with the rifle.
