    Interesting 22LR round.

    That's it on the right.
    60 grain bullet (!) looks like a torpedo stuck in a 22 short case.
    They DO cycle quite nicely.
    Has a cute little (scale?) muzzle flip as an added benefit.

    They tumble when shot from a short barrel, but still hit the target.
    This is my preferred self-defense round in the 1911-22.

    Guess I should show off my custom G10 grips too.

    It shoots nice.
    I wonder how good it is for the pistol though.
    It really does have a (scaled down) recoil with the SSS.

    Hey...it fires...and it ejects.

    How bad could it be...?

    I worry about the stress it imposes on the pistol.
    It has some kick to it.

    Not at all!
    Find a box and see for yourself.

    A better round for self defense is the CCI Segmented rounds. Upon impact the round breaks into 3 pieces. Pretty devastating little round.
    This is what I carry in mine.
