Has anyone gotten one of the 222 accessory barrels yet?

I've seen them on the list in the FAQ's and am strangely interested.  Just wanting to see if anyone has one and how it worked out for you.

I just found a cute little stick of .222 brass inside a 45-70 (in a bag used brass); does this mean I have to get a .222 barrel?

I think people order barrels if they even accidently find a small rifle primer in the drawer. So the Brass is even more specific.... it's a sign.  thejanitor

What twist is the Handi Duece offered in?I hope its not 1-9.  A 1-12 or a 1-14 would trip my cast bullet shootin' trigger finger.

You won't see anything on their website that they actually have, see the New Accessory Barrels Available sticky, they've had Huntsman barrels in stock for several months, but the website says they have none.  ::)

I finally Received  my two new barrels this week. I ordered a .222Rem. barrel and a .35 Rem. barrel , Both look real good.  I have not fired them yet, today I loaded a few rounds to try out the .222 and I bought a scope and rings and have it mounted and bore sighted , so I'm ready to go try it .....If it ever stops raining long enough so I don't MELT......

 PS: Thanks to Tim for letting us know those barrels are available  !!!  :-*

                               My son shoots a .450 Marlin ........I had to have a barrel
