In pistols yes. Because of the slow burning powder. It's made to push the bullet through a longer barrel than a pistol has.
However, .22mag certainly leaves .22lr in the dust when it comes to rifles.
If a .22mag pistol cartridge were ever made then that would be one bad dude for such a small round.
