Have had at least one .22 Rimfire Magnum since age 16, which was over half-a-century ago, and a .17 HMR since a year after the round appeared in 2002. Have found plenty of uses for both, where they work far better than the .22 LR.
Also have owned .22 Hornets for many years, along with .17 Hornets. They work great too--but if somebody can't find different fine uses for a .22 LR, .22 WMR, .17 HMR and .17 or .22 Hornet then they don't qualify as a real rifle loony.
