No. Not only more powerful and longer, they are larger in diameter, and will not fit.

Can a Ruger 22 model 1022 be retro fit to the new ruger 22 WMR?

The Winchester Magnum Rimfire is a larger round, and is capable of producing twice as much energy as the .22lr. I do believe that Ruger is making a rifle capable of handling the .22WMR, but a standard .22lr rifle is incapable of safely firing the .22WMR.

How to distinguish 22lr to 22magnum bullet?

22 magnums actual caliber is .220. If you look at the tip of the bullet 22 mag has a sharp point. On a 22lr it is rounded and 22 mag is bigger around. Look around the rim and it will say 22 magnum or 22 lr.

Can you shoot 22Lr though 22Magnum barrel?

The answer is maybe. Certain revolvers are "convertibles"- they have two different cylinders. However, for most firearms, 22 LR should NOT be shot in .22 Magnum guns (cartridge case will split) 22 Magnum ammo will not fit in a 22 LR chamber- too fat to fit.
