Echo: nothing from Remington. I think I'd stick with 40 grain solids. Go for penetration.

No 22LR ammo I know of is engineered for snub nosed revolvers, because of this I really don't think hyper velocity loads really do much in such a short barrel, except spit lots of partially burned powder, and make things especially dirty. In bullet performance I am very skeptical of any sort of gain from these made-for-rifles loads. A gain of maybe 100 fps isn't worth it in this example, it is questionable at best that HP ammo would have enough velocity to properly expand.
