.223 Chamber Adapter
« on: December 03, 2009, 02:23:46 AM »
Has anyone with a singleshot .223 rifle or pistol tried one of the chamber adapters that allows you to insert it and shoot 22 long rifle ? If so what was your opinion on ease of use and accuracy ? Thanks.

Although I no longer own a .223, I still have the Harry Owen .22LR/.223 blued steel chamber adaptor I used for awhile in a T/C Contender.

The accuracy was commensurate with the normal accuracy from that gun - no better, no worse.

The rate of fire, however, was a lot slower because once the .22LR was fired and the adaptor extracted - the fired/empty .22LR case still had to be poked out & reloaded before the adaptor could itself be reloaded into the gun's chamber for firing again.

Rangr44, if you have no need for the adapter you have would you like to sell it ?

The adaptor's on it's way, Steve - along with the original one-page user guide, I had tucked away with it.

Have a Merry Christmas, everyone !
