Can you shoot stingers in 10/22s or not, ? I might have to shoot them in my revolver only if my 10/22 won't cycle them. — 7 Answers

I shot Stingers in two different 10/22's I've owned with zero problems although Ruger advises against it because the rounds are slightly longer than normal .22LR's

Yes I shoot stingers in 2 of my 10/22s. The only ones you should not use stingers in, is the the ones with target barrels due to the case length of the stinger is longer than a standard 22 long rifle case.

Been shooting stingers in Rugers, colt, Remington, ar7, sig for 40 years and they all love them better by far than standard 22lr. The extra velocity helps cycle semi-autos.

My wife and I both have Ruger chargers, Mark IVs and a LCPII in 22. All but the LCPII works very well. Over cycles the LCPII. As the Charger is a short 10/22 I am very confident it will work great in yours.I like this ammo as well as the Federal 22 punch.

They are actually the same length as any other .22LR. Round. Just the Stinger’s case is slightly longer, and the bullet is slightly shorter.
