Seems to me that If you get a 22 mag reamer you could probably use it to ream 22LR, 22WRF, & 22mag since the 22LR has a heeled bullet and chambers that are reamed straight through anyway.

I'm sure someone will chime in with better info if I am wrong.

Sorry, incorrect. .22 WRF can be fired in a .22 mag. (MRF) chamber but .22 lr. has a smaller case. A lr. might go bang in a mag. chamber but it has considerably different dimensions although bullet size is close.
