The 22TC is a 223 case shortened to these specs, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_TC...:22tcm_prm.jpg
It is loaded to the same OAL as a 45 ACP so it will fit in the 1911 platform. The cartridge is loaded with a 22 caliber 40 grain HP and is capable of exceeding 2000 fps in a 5" 1911. The bullets are flat nosed and are normally loaded in a 22 Hornet. I just recently discovered this round myself even though it has been out for a couple years or more. The muzzle blast is huge and it is very loud but surprisingly the recoil is like shooting a 22 LR through a 40 ounce pistol, There is very little muzzle rise and the front sights come back on target quickly. The accuracy is also impressive. Armscor is also developing a conversion kit for  s but they made a22TCMR for that which is a necked down 9mm. I don't know when that may be available.
