My 14 inch rechambed super 14 by Belum is as accuracy as my 20 inch V.V. encore carbine barrel at 50 yards. It will shoot under 1 inch at 50 yards. I could not belive it. I was useing a 20 x rifle scope on it. But that is the way it happen with me. I do not have knowledge about any Hunting conditions with the 22 Win Mag rim. Twyman

Lst summer I shot a bunch of prairie dogs, gophers and ground squirrels. I used Remington green tip as well as CCI TNT hP's The CCI would really blow them apart. I had a 2x scope so that limited most shots to 75-100 yards at best. I found the factory barrel to do 1" at 50 without a problem.

Les,

I have the VVCG 13" 22 Mag barrel and use it quite a bit. It groups them in a touching little cloverleaf at 25yards, and in an inch circle at 100 yards. I have the Weaver 1.5-4X on it and it's great for the caliber. I was previously using a Swift 2.5X on it and it worked fine also.

This is my "lap gun" when driving between the PD fields on a very large ranch. I take shots across the mirror and have connected out to 125yards with it. It likes the 34 Win Supremes and the Remington V-Maxs and both shoot at the same POI in this setup. CCIs opened up the groups and shifted the POI, so I leave em alone.
