swpa,
You want to clarifiy how the .22LR has more punch then the WRF. If I remember my 22 RFs the first was the BB, CB, short, long, extra long, long rifle, WRF and then the Winchester Magnum Rimfire. Considering that the standard 40 gr HV bullet for a rifle will give about 1255 FPS/140 FPE. The .22 WRF with a 45 gr bullet will go 1300 fps/169 FPE. The Long Rifle uses a .222" bullet and the WRF/WMR use .224" bullets. The WMR uses a streched WRF case with a 40 gr bullet at 1910 fps/325 fpe from a rifle. Yes, there are some hyper velocity LR loads but as your distance increases the heavier WRF load will still carry more energy down range.
