The .22 mag is more of a rifle cartridge. Saying that though, it can sure be fun to shoot out of a handgun at dusk.
Wonder how much those velocities would drop if shot out of a shorter barrel such as a revolver or pistol.
I'm not sure if there is any .22 mag ammo out there that is actually manufactured for the intent of such a short barrel.
I remember too well all the unburnt powder left in the chamber of my AMT auto mag II.... So much, matter of fact, it contributed to it not being reliable.
good point
