Ruger is warning about using OTHER CARTRIDGES, such as the .22Short and .22Long. "Other cartridges" would include .22WRF, .22WMR, .22Remington Auto, .22Winchester Auto, .22Extra Long and all those funky little obsolete .22 rimfire cartridges that may still be lingering about. It is chambered in .22LR and the Stinger, Spitfire, Yellow Jacket, etc. are all .22LR cartridges.
I said it before and I'll say it again, if Ruger did not want you shooting hyper velocity ammo in their guns, they would tell you that specifically in plain English. You guys are reading WAAAAAY too much into what has been ommitted. It is silly to think that Ruger would not have updated a manual, which has been updated several times and in several ways, since 1977 to add a warning not to use a specific type of .22LR load.
