Yes indeed. See my comment above.
I have some too, and they are great with conventional 32 or 40 grain 22LR. They just don’t feed the 60gr reliable, in my experience.
Yes, I bought an aftermarket 16” barrel for the fast twist. It came threaded with a thread protector, ready for a can. I see no loss of accuracy with conventional 40gr ammo. I haven’t tried it for accuracy with 32gr stuff. (I don’t have any currently).
She should have gotten a medal.
wish me luck buddy, gotta go see the Dr this am, to see if they can keep my rosy bag of bones alive.
best wishes to you my FRiend
Thanks. I generally need less firepower in town. Remington’s CBee .22 LR fills the bill while feeding from a Ruger factory 10. I have to cycle the action manually, but it’s a lot better than trying to weasel CB longs into the chamber.

He’s a spammer.
He’s paid to get hits — he posts on workdays of the week — look at the dates he posts, he never comments or responds to comments:

I thought FR had rules about this.
I own one of those pistols, with a longer barrel, and chambered for .22LR- given to me as a gift by my brother. It was a cheap gun when it was made, and it’s impossible to shoot double action, but it’s fun.
It has also turned out to be an excellent tool for teaching young women to shoot, as it’s light, slow to fire, and doesn’t intimidate them.
It’s so cheap that it doesn’t have an ejector- it has a rod that you screw out from under the barrel and use to push the empty cases out through the loading gate!
Maybe CCI still makes Mini-Caps. Less noise than an air rifle but works on small vermin, pigeons, etc.
That is quite a story. Thank you for sharing.
Seemed the quality suggests something over the $2,000 price range.
ATNX-Sight $600 at optics planet!
Many years ago the American Rifleman carried an article where a guy described killing squirrels to elephants with his ‘06. For squirrels, he had a load using a shotgun pellet and a few grains of pistol powder, seating the pellet in the case with his thumb. Bullet placement is everything.
That’s an extremely well-placed shot. I might go as far as to say it was lucky. I once shot a big hog square in the front of his head with a .22 LR. It did nothing. That’s why I no longer hunt hogs with a .22.
I have some CCI shorts that sound like s fart coming out of my old Remington pump rifle.
I’m pretty sure they still make CB Longs and CB shorts. See if you can find Remington CBee .22 LRs. Quiet, with a frangible 33 gr bullet.
Sub-sonics don’t eject very well out of semi-autos. Always pay attention to what you buy first and just don’t buy because the box says .22 caliber, long rifle without reading the details. Don’t be like me! LOL
Good luck!
I’ve got surgery Tuesday. Nothing to worry about, just a torn cartilage trim on my knee.
Did she walk?
Correct, Can't even begin to count the number of hawgs I've killed with an old High Standard double nine , back in the days that we ran cattle and hawgs in the woods ,open range days.
