    2800fps 22lr?

    Stumbled across this old video using 22 air rifle pellets in front of nail gun blanks to get 2800fps out of a 22lr. There's also links to a testing video where they test penetration.

    If the low or med power cases gave something like sub-2" group at 25 yds, they might be interesting but they were all over the place. Pressures must have been "up there" with the grunty charge.
