Newest 22 Remington Jet Rifle Ammo

The .22 Remington Jet, also known as .22 Jet, American centerfire revolver and rifle cartridge. Developed jointly by Remington and Smith & Wesson, it was to be used in the Model 53 revolver, which first appeared late in 1961. It is a bottlenecked cartridge based upon the .357 Magnum case necked down to a .224 caliber bullet, with an unusually long tapered shoulder. By 1972, the Model 53 remained the only revolver chambered for it. The .22 Jet was also a factory chambering for the T/C Contender and the design allowed for it to reach its full potential. No cylinder gap, no case setback.[3][circular reference] The .22 Jet was designed as a flat-shooting hunting round for handguns, and it is suitable for handgun hunting of varmints and medium game out to 100 yd. Factory published velocity of 2460 FPS did not prove out in service weapons.
