.40 S&W
They are identical in size and a magnum DOES fit into the LR cylinder. The only difference is that the mag does not have the notches cut into it.

Exactly. That's why I bought the Chiappa 10 shot 1873 pistola. For 179$ one of my funnest plinkers.
Not one poke on the 1873. I have the 6 and the 10 shooter Chiappa and you have to poke it 6 or 10 times. Now my S & W model 60 is one poke and all 5 come out but not the C. 1873s. But I guess thats where the ole "you get what you pay for" theory comes in to play.

Well, the .22 magnum cylinder has finally arrived! No email before hand saying it was shipped. They say there would be?
Yes, the cylinders are different. Other than the magnum cylinder not being fluted and bearing a stamped marking that it is .22 Mag. The .22 mag is slightly smaller in diameter then .22 LR rounds. While the .22 mag will fit in a .22 LR, it's not true the other way around. Magnum rounds should be fired in a weapon designed for them! Rifles chambered for .22lr will have .22 mag. rounds cause a number of problems.

Apples to Oranges type comparison. Single action vs. double action. Isn't the md. 60 a .357?
All I'm talking about is what you have to do to discard the spent casings. The description was completely Apple to Apple..nothing to do with single vs double action mechanics.

Does the cylinder of the Chiappa swing out? Are the spent shells ejected through a loading port? As the cylinder on the S+W swings out and the ejection rod pushes out all the spent shells. Not the same, except you're removing spent shells from a cylinder.
.22 vs .357/.38+p, yeah apple to apple cause they both go bang!
Yes the Chiappa cylinder swings out, then you push the ejector rod through,manually turn once,push through,manually turn once, push through 8 more times
. My S & W was a 5 shot with a 5 headed ejector rod that you push once and all 5 casings get knocked out in one push.

Still not making myself clear. The Chiappa is a single action pistol. The cylinder does not swing out via a crane. Where as on the Smith it stays in place via the crane. The Chiappa is loaded and unloaded one round at a time, only way to do it correctly! (Through the loading gate/port.)

I have blown $100 at pizza joints with the family. This seems like a slam dunk no-brainer.
Right? Me n my two children went to the dumbest movie on Saturday..could have bought this and couple boxes of ammunition
. It is what it is..a fun cheap plinker not to be over thought.

Was a no brainer! Couldn't beat the price, decent reviews, cheap to shoot. Biggest snag with the whole transaction was waiting for Heritage to send the .22 Mag cylinder. Almost six weeks until it arrived, but the price was right. Go me a .22, .22 mag plinker for under $150.

Sadly Brownells wants $199 for the Heritage Rough Rider in 22 mag. Pfft. Since it's a rimfire; so we still have to go through the bullshit to get it added to our CCW? Ugh!
Is that with both cylinders? You may be able to still find the Chiappa 1873 both cylinders for way under that. I got my 6 & 10 1873s from Buds, but that was a few years now..

Where is Bud's? I checked the Gander Mountain website but they are toast now due to the bankruptcy. The website is basically a holding spot. Locally I have Herb Philippsons, Second Amendment Arms, and Bare Arms. I should check and see if those smaller places have websites. Do I want both cylinders (22 LR and 22 Magnum) or just the 22 Magnum? I guess I want both, huh? I use a Marlin 870V for plinking with a rifle. I think I have a Leupold Rifleman or something lower level on it. Honestly it's dialed for 100 and I haven't even tried 200 with 22 LR. I figured it wouldn't reach that far.
