| .22 Reed Express | The .22 Reed Express firearm cartridge was designed by [http://www.reedsammo.com/ Reed's Ammunition & Research]. It is a 7.62 x 25 mm Necked Down to a .22 caliber bullet.

| .50 Action Express | The .50 Action Express (AE, 12.7 mm) is a cartridge used in a small number of large handguns, notably the IMI Desert Eagle.

IMI factory loads have a muzzle velocity of 425 m/s (1,400 ft/s) with a 325 grain (21 g) bullet and 1917 J of energy (1414 ft·lbf). Handloading can even further develop the cartridge's potential. It is the most powerful commercial cartridge in use today for a semi-automatic handgun. Only three commercial cartridges designed for handguns exceed its ballistic performance: the .454 Casull, 460 XVR and the .500 S&W, all of which are used strictly in revolvers. (references) | ||
