Info from CCI re .22 WRF in revolvers

I noticed the warning (in VERY small print) on the SECOND box of CCI .22 WRF ammo I bought, after having shot most of the first box with very satisfactory results. It just got my curiosity up, particularly since the box of Winchester .22 WRF ammo (also with jacketed bullets)I bought at the same time said no such nonsense.

Five words on the side of the box leave a lot to be desired in the way of explanation, and much room for misinterpretation. I strongly suspect that it is just some more lawyer crap, so that if someone should stick a bullet in the bore of an old Colt like the one shown in the post above, CCI could say "We told you not to, right on the box!"

A modern conundrum: too much information and not enough information, all at the same time.
