RM=Rim Fire. Had to think about that one too.

Ah so, I should have thought of that. But I never saw a 22 center fire
cartridge.

Lots of them about. 221 Fireball (shortened 222), 222, 218 Bee, 223,
22-250. The list goes on.


What's a 22B.

It's a smaller bullet (same caliber obviously but less lead) with less charge.
To be honest I'm not sure they're being made any more.

Hmm. Flobert-Patronen BB & CB caps. Like a short 22 Short, the BB has a
round lead ball projectile, the CB has a conical projectile. Wonderful
for shooting cats & birds in suburbia. Almost no muzzle blast from a
rifle barrel and quite accurate. I still have a few hundred somewhere.
