    Hadn't heard of these. Interesting development.

    They're going to be popular with some small game hunters.

    Not even close, 22 mag is approx the same speed with a bullet double the weight.

    For what its worth, I got my hands on some of these a few months ago and was frankly disappointed. I tried them is several different rifles ( if I recall, a Marlin bolt, a Ruger 10-22 and a Remington 797) and accuracy was disappointing. None of these rifles are what I would call tack drivers but regular CCI mini mags and stingers were far more accurate. Also (and I am attributing this to the extremely light ceramic (?) projectile) one of the semis would not cycle reliably using this ammo. I'll stick with the stingers........

    2x, the best CCI and Hornady can be had for $22 all in. If your OK with 50 grain Federal, that goes on sale twice a month for $12 a box, so same price as this. I hear what your saying though, WMR is definitely more expensive than LR, but this particular ammo doesn't seem like its going to be the game changer.
