The Aguila SubSonic Sniper round uses a .22 short case with a 60-grain (3.9 g) bullet (twice the weight of the .22 short bullet and 50% heavier than a .22 long rifle bullet) giving an overall length of a .22 long rifle round, making categorizing the SSS problematic: while the SSS case size is .22 short, the firing chamber of the barrel must be ...

.22 caliber, or 5.6 mm, refers to a common firearms bore diameter of 0.22 inch (5.6 mm) in both rimfire and centerfire cartridges. Cartridges in this caliber include the very widely used .22 Long Rifle and .223 Remington/5.56×45mm NATO. .22 inch is also a popular air gun pellet caliber, second only to the ubiquitous .177 caliber.

(Round balls lose velocity faster than conical bullets and have much steeper ballistic trajectories beyond about 75 yards or 69 metres) In contrast, a 4-bore express rifle often used a 1,500-grain (3.43 oz; 97.20 g) bullet wrapped in paper to keep lead buildup to a minimum in the barrel. In either case, assuming a 4-ounce (110 g) mass for a 4 ...
