I carried a High Standard .22 Magnum for the whole time I was with Dallas PD. It started out the #1 Backup and went to the #2 position after I started carrying a Model 38 in a leg holster. The HS rode in a Bianchi IWB holster clipped to the strap on my vest... With CCI TNT HPs they make 1200 fps...
I knew Bob Saunders who was the president of American Derringer and sold a lot of his guns when I was a dealer. One of my friends had a 3" .45-70/.410 that would get your attention when it went off.
One nice thing about the HS and other hammerless DA derringers is that you are going to get two shots off with no worry of jamming or slowness of thumbcocking to get the rounds off...
