Title: .22 Caliber Discussed In 1893 Post by Knute1 on May 20th, 2018 at 2:03am
According to the 1895 Ordnance Report (page 21), they were already thinking about a .22 caliber cartridge being developed in 1893. I guess this would be a grandfather to the 5.56 round of today. Seems like they had just developed the .30 Government and were still experimenting with powders. That would be forward thinking.
