Re: Standard 22LR rifling twist rate?
The conversion works with the standard pencil barrel but not with the larger bull barrel that I had installed. Not enough room between the gas port and barrel. :( Besides, I worked around that by DOWNLOADING with cast bullets. 2.5gr bullseye with 45gr RN/GC bullets, turned it into a straight pull bo...

Re: Standard 22LR rifling twist rate?
I've got one of those, but since the barrel change I can't use it. Original barrel was 1-7, swapped over to 1-9 bull barrel.

Re: Standard 22LR rifling twist rate?
Thanks guys. Looks like 1-9 twist is a bit tight for what I have planned, but OUGHT to work. Just need to put it on paper to REALLY find out. BTW, the lead that I'm making the Lyman 225438 44gr LRN bullets out of is 1-16 alloy, which should be soft enough to mushroom at about 1k fps.
