And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The difference between the Long and the Long Rifle is actually the length of the bullet outside of the case. I have a Winchester 1890 pump action .22 that says .22 Long on it. If you feed it Long Rifle the feeder jams on the end of the bullet. There may also be a difference in the powder charge. You can shoot Long Rifle in it single shot if you want to.
Looks like he is loading 22 shorts, killer round for squirrels, on the ground or in the trees.
ReplyDeleteComparing the length of the case to the bullet, it appears that you're correct.
DeleteIt looks more like a 22 long (not long rifle)...The angle it is at makes it hard to tell but it just seems a bit larger than a short.

ReplyDeleteWho really gives a damn about the type of 22 cartridge? The flames is what is interesting here. Where can I get that done to a set of pistol grips?
ReplyDeleteI beleive those grips were available recently on Heritage revolvers.

Looks like a centerfire cartridge to me. Possibly a .32 H&R Magnum.
ReplyDeleteThat's my story and I'm sticking to it.
That's not a primer in the base. Appears to be a makers logo stamped/molded into it. UC?
