.22 conversion to 17 Saw a barrell assembly to convert a ruger 10/22 to a 17, anyone here done it yet?

Re: .22 conversion to 17 What would be the benefit of this? Is .17 cheaper than .22? Also, how fast can you swap the barrel on a 10/22?

The barrel swap is simple enough. The barrel is only held in place with a couple of screws. Hope you can find the .17 HM2 ammo to feed it... More information is available at this website: http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/index.php

I don't have one, but have seen them. You need a heavier bolt handle too, or it won't work right. Kits will have the barrel and bolt handle. The 17HM2 kicks with more power, and with the regular 22LR bolt you will get FTE's and burst cases. -end-

Re: .22 conversion to 17 I have done .556 to .22 and its a hoot to shoot all day for $20 instead of $150

Re: .22 conversion to 17 I have a S&W revolver in 17 hmr, it's a fun little gun. I wanted a semi-auto rifle in the same caliber, but there's no good choices at any reasonable price. The only ones that don't seem to have problems are the Volquartsens, but they cost $1400 each and that's too much. -end-
