DEVELOPMENT OF RIMFIRE AMMUNITION

As you look at the rimfire section of the ammunition counter in a sporting goods store you will see stacks of boxes labeled 22 Long Rifle (LR), 22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR), and 17 Hornady Magnum Rimfire (HMR). If the store has a comprehensive line of ammunition, you may also see boxes of the new 17 Mach 2, 22 Short, 22 Long or perhaps those dinosaurs known as the 22 CB Short and 22 CB Long that live on for some reason. It is possible that you may also see a box or two of 22 Winchester Rim Fire (WRF), a cartridge that was introduced in 1890 along with the Winchester Model 90 pump rifle that was chambered for the cartridge. As this is being written, another 17-caliber cartridge or two are being marketed or are under development.

The frame of the Smith & Wesson opened at the bottom and was hinged at the top.
