Don't stingers also have much more energy and velocity than standard 22? If so, the comparison is not perfect. Clearly, both of those play a role in performance.
Slightly off topic, I had a box of WW-II 45ACP and a friend crono'd a few rounds out of a 1911, the reason we did this is because I swear it was louder and had more recoil. The few he shot were around 930 FPS. A bit better than today's generic ball ammo. No wonder it was effective back then.
