+1 .22 Magnum ammunition has always been pricey and that is the big reason I sold a Model 51 that I had years ago. I could reload .38 Specials for much less than I could buy .22 Magnums. It is still a great cartridge in rifles, but IMHO it doesn't have much to offer in handguns considering its expense and greatly reduced performance.
