    I've always liked these oddball calibers. In fact, during the cimedmacS, I picked up a CZ 457 Lux in .17HMR, because that was about the only caliber I was seeing on the shelves. Didn't need it, but now I have it.

      I think the problem is that Rock Island won't let anyone make anything .22TCM, which is why they (Rock/Armscor) are the only ones who make the ammo and chamber guns for .22TCM. They're not letting anyone else buy into the market and pay them royalties to utilize their creation. You can't just copy someones trademarked copyrighted design without paying them royalties to do so (and with their permission) unless you want sued bigtime.

    Good shooting! Pushed 400 yards! Very efficient 'pistol caliber'. Basically 223 short. Try lubing the chamber for 'sticky' casings. Straight walled bottle neck case fire forms. Can also try polish the chamber if it's rough or parkerized inside. Good for handloaders. Parent case is 223 rem. Reload 223 rem and if you get a split case, cut it down to 22TCM. Can also use other .22 cal / .224" projectiles. Try the M1911 double stack pistol in 22TCM. Good range review I'll share this video 👍

    Armscor says that the 9R is only supposed to be used in pistols made for 9mm size ammo. The original .22 TCM was made to use in 1911's that were originally 9mm, but with a .22 TCM conversion kit. The 9mm 1911's still had .45 ACP length magazines, which they took advantage of. When they started making conversion kits for Glock 9mm's, they had to make the 9R version to fit in the 9mm length magazine. They changed the chamber slightly in the 9R kits. I have a MAPP .22TCM 9R. It's basically a CZ75 in .22 TCM 9R made by Armscor. Was really glad I had it during COVID. It quickly became the cheapest pistol ammo out there. Price went up eventually, though.

    • @BAdventures
      @BAdventures Месяц назад

      Yes exactly. 22TCM 40gr long slug was made for 38 super mags. It's about 3mm longer than 9mm. OAL won't fit in popular 9mm Glock mags. The 39gr '9R' is the short slug. OAL is shorter to fit in 9mm mags. Both are still 22TCM case just different slugs / projectiles. That's the irony. Common and popular calibers are the first to dry up during panic buying. But the oddballs are still around. Always a good back-up option.

    So, from what I understand, Rock Island was making their 1911's in a combo with two barrels and slides that would cycle the standard ammo just fine. It wasn't until they made a Glock conversion that the OCL became an issue. The fix was the development of the "R" designated ammo. All they did 2as take the same projectile in the standard ammo and flip it backward. The reason for the inaccuracy is that the bullet isn't designed to go backwards, and shooting from a Glock, long range accuracy wasn't a concern.

      🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • @BAdventures
      @BAdventures Месяц назад

      Close and you're on the right track. 40gr is the long slug, OAL of 38 super M1911 mags. '9R' is 39gr short slug, OAL of 9mm to fit Glock mags. Martin Tuason the President and CEO said in a product video "We flipped the bullet backwards for shorter OAL and made the 9R". Likely where that came from. He was speaking off the cuff in layman's terms. Its not backwards it's a stubby hollow point with flat base. You can look up pick of the projectiles. My theory for the inaccuracy is different QC of ammo from Philippines and US, and poor projectile design. A friend with M1911 double stack said he found the US made 40gr, and 39gr 9R, ammo had split cases and less power. He mainly shoots the 40gr both PH and US made. I've only used the PH made 40gr ammo. Also both have very different nose points. The stubby 9R isn't as aerodynamic as a longer or pointier shape. Handloaders have a had great results with better powders and projectiles. Eg: the Speer 22cal/.224" 40gr spire soft point is more accurate. Pointy 223 rem rifle projectile. And faster burning magnum powders worked well. Would like to see more handload data from 22TCM rifles. But they're not that common yet.

  • @Dennisthemenace40
    @Dennisthemenace40 2 месяца назад +2

    Having nearly the same ballistics as the 22 Hornet is interesting but what makes it a truly modern version of that caliber is that, for handloaders, the brass is far more durable. Hornet brass is very thin around the neck and cases usually split after 3-5 loadings regardless of the care taken. TCM brass can be easily loaded 10x without issues, with proper technique. It makes for a fantastic high volume varmint round inside 200-300 yards due to its relatively small powder charge. I wish RIA would produce more of these guns.

    • @BAdventures
      @BAdventures Месяц назад +1

      Yes you get it and all good points. 22TCM is open source. Parent case is 223 rem / 5.56 NATO so will never die. Agree RIA should have supported it better. You can get AR DI uppers in 22TCM. McGowen Precision and 'Tim The AR Guy' both offer AR15 DI gas barrels. Can get a complete AR upper, or just the barrel and build your own. But will need TCM/pistol cal conversion mags. KAK also make a direct blow back AR upper with 8.6" barrel.

    I own an M22tcm and a M1911 A2 ms hc ( medium size, high capacity)
    You'll find that the 22tcm9r was designed to fire from 9x19 mags.
    The " r " in 22tcm9r stands for rebated ....a 39 gr. bullet seated deeper into the casing hence 22tcm9r ( rebated ).
    My M22tcm rifle has the fully adj. polymer stock. I had the barrel professionally shortened to 16.5 inches with a 17 degree target crown .
    While i like both guns , i bought a Ruger lc Carbine in 5.7x28 and a PSA Rock .
    I'm thinking of selling the M22tcm and 250 rounds on Gunbroker because the State i live in doesn't allow small game hunting with anything but rimfire ammunition.

    • @BAdventures
      @BAdventures Месяц назад

      That sounds great and exactly what I wanted. Emailed RIA that feedback for a 16.5" barrels version. Can still keep it for fun and training. 22TCM is half the price of FN 5.7mm. And slightly cheaper than bulk pack 223 rem at $0.40 a round. If you handload even cheaper as parent case is 223 rem. Very difficult to reload FN 5.7mm and basically not viable.

    In a pistol I don't have any use for it but in a rifle, this is an extremely efficient cartridge. It just never took off like the 5.7 did and it's a shame as (IMO) it's a better design. This is an ideal cartridge for the reloader as it can be downloaded to light 22 Mag velocities or hot loaded to shoot varmints out past 200 yards. Virtually no recoil, very little muzzle blast, good accuracy and if you reload a pound of powder will last a lonnnnng time. The case is rimless and made for substantial pressure and these are 2 items the 22 Hornet struggles with along with availability. I would love to see other manufacturers chamber rifles for it, but it just doesn't have to popularity to make them a profit so it's unlikely to happen

    Im sure its using a much faster burning powder than 223, probably a pistol powder. I load reduced loads for varmits, and with 9.5 grains of unique i can push a 40gr bullet about 2800ish fps, there is zero recoil, no need for hearing protection, sounds about like a .22 mag, and its absolute deadly on rockchucks and ground squirrels with a noticeable reduction in range. You get a lot of loads from a pound of powder, and the barrel never really gets warm, all the powder burns up in the first few inches. If you ever want to try this, start at around 7 grains and work up, the pressure can spike very quickly using fast powder, also weigh each charge and dont use a block, weigh seat bullet, accidentally double charging will most likely have a catastrophic result, there is a lot of data out there for blue dot and unique, ive also used green dot, my best results were with unique as far as consistency.

    @ryewaldman2214 3 месяца назад +2

    Just a bit of a correction here. when discussing the power, it appears you've conflated muzzle velocity with power. Just assuming the numbers you give are correct, 223 with a 55gr @2900fps (this is slow, its more like 3100fps) vs the 22tcm with a 40gr at 2800 fps, the "power" or more correctly, the energy at the muzzle is 634 fpe for a 40 grain bullet traveling at 2800 fps, compared to 935 fpe for a 55 grain bullet traveling at 2900 fps. 223 with a 55gr is going a bit faster, at least 3100 fps, which is more like 1069 fpe.
    Interestingly, your observation that the case capacity is about half of the 223, so you expect about half the "power"---i.e., muzzle energy---was just about spot on. Most 223 and 556 "hunting" loads are loaded to about 1,200 fpe muzzle energy, which is just about double of the 22 tcm's 630ish fpe of muzzle energy.
    Pretty nifty little cartridge!

    • @BuckeyeBallistics
      @BuckeyeBallistics  3 месяца назад +2

      40gr at 2800fps is 696fpe according to my calculator, so I'm not quite sure where you're getting 634fpe from. Similarly, 55gr at 2900fps is 1027fpe, not 935fpe as you stated. Regardless of whether you use my numbers or yours, that *IS* "about 3/4" the power of a 2900fps 55gr .223 bullet as I stated in the video. And yes I'm aware there are faster and more powerful .223 loads, but some are in fact 2900fps with a 55gr bullet- PMC Bronze that I shoot for example...

      Initially no. Depends on the batch and time period. Bulk factory ammo was slower rifle powder. You can tell straight away in a pistol. The powder 'spills' covering the internals with unburned powder. Also the massive fireballs as muzzle flash. Handloaders improved reliability and overall performance by using faster pistol powders. I passed on this feedback to RIA Armscor. Not sure if and when they acted on it.

And slightly cheaper than bulk pack 223 rem at $0.40 a round. They also have brass/nickel cases. Parent case is 223 rem so you can always form your own.

      The "need" was for the pistol platform which is what it was originally released for if I'm not mistaken, perhaps to dethrone the 5.7x28 which it did in a sense (more powerful).

Appreciate the like even though you thought I was wrong, but the .22tcm from the rifle is 697fpe and the .223 load I shoot is 1027fpe. So yeah, that's pretty close to 3/4 the power just like I said, so I'm not quite sure where you're getting the whole 3.38x thing from. Care to elaborate? Yes there are more powerful .223 and 5.56 loads than what I quoted, but nowhere near 3.38 times more power than the .22tcm- that would be 2355fpe which is is WAY more powerful than any 5.56 load...

Not supposed to shoot those shorty bullets through the rifle or 1911 pistol that's made for the 22tcm rounds.

    22TCM is for 1911's and the 22TCM9R is for Glock handguns. The regular 22TCM is about 2100fps out of a 5" 1911 fwiw. Naturally the regular 22TCM is a tad hotter and is what I would shoot out of 1911's and the rifle. There is No need for the special Glock 22TCM ammo in your case.

    • @BAdventures

      Yes exactly. 22TCM 40gr long slug was made for 38 super mags. It's about 3mm longer than 9mm. OAL won't fit in popular 9mm Glock mags. The 39gr '9R' is the short slug. OAL is shorter to fit in 9mm mags. Both are still 22TCM case just different slugs / projectiles. I don't know about either being 'hotter'. Both ammo had the same velocities from 5" pistols from the tests I've seen. But it's possible, rolling changes over time.

Would also be good for ruduced range/ricochet concern that .223 has with it's generally heavier and longer bullets. Not that .223 carries much energy very far, but this cartridge definately has reduced worry about ricochetes traveling as far. It's basically a light/reduced power .223 load, so whatever that would be good for. So yeah it may not be very practical, but it's fun to shoot and a nice conversation piece...
