223 to 22-250
« on: November 28, 2007, 05:19:32 PM »
How hard would it be to rechamber 223 to a 22-250, and do you think a 1 in 12 twist will handle 60 to 65 grain bullets. How can i get to the articles on stubing. Thanks Rich

It wouldn't be hard at all for a competent gunsmith, but rechambering and a new extractor will cost more than a brand new 22-250 barrel.

True but if you want to get a faster twist 22-250 it is the cheapest route.;)
