| Warning! Notes: The .22 WCF was introduced in 1885 as one of the original cartridges for the famous Winchester single-shot rifle, first manufactured that year. It was also chambered in the Remington No. 7 rolling block rifle in 1904. It was actually too long for most of the short repeating actions of the day, although Winchester once cataloged it for the Model 1873, so its use was confined mostly to single-shot rifles. It is the predecessor of the 22 Hornet. (Cartridges of the World 10th Edition) |
