.22s have been used by the US military.
The M22 rifle was a military trainer that mimicked the Springfield model 1903, and various braches of US Service have used .22 pistols in competition.

I was thinking more in terms of combat use . . . you wouldn't train zero-experience fighter pilots in the F35 either.
I think my son has a 25-round rimfire magazine for an AR-style rifle he got for his kid. Haven't seen it personally, as I live in NJ where such things are officially frowned upon. The 10/22 magazine doesn't take much time or effort to load, though you can empty it pretty quickly.
