The military made some jacketed .22LR rifle rounds - for what purpose I'm not sure, perhaps for the old, silenced .22's that spec ops have. I read about it in Precision Shooting or The Accurate Rifle - there was a big article about the evolution of the .22 bullet called "A Brass Cup, A Pinch of powder, A Lump of Lead."

I use Winchester X22LR in my Ruger Mk 22/45. It's a "plated" 40gr. RN. The indoor range I shoot at doesn't allow rounds that have bullets with exposed lead.

Those cheapy bulk 550 round boxes of Federal .22LR "hollowpoint" ammo that you get at WalMart for $8.97 is plated. They also usually have Remingtons for the same price, but those are just Alox lubed.
