Rimfire liners for our BPCR's

[Kenny Wasserburger]

I had two Crossnos, Shot very well used them in my 45-70 and daughter's 40-65.

However: and I never see any thing posted on this, The shorter 22 barrel inside your Mirror finished Shiloh barrel, leaves a nasty spray on the barrel surface every time you fire it where the muzzle ends, a good many times and this stuff is hard to remove. It in effect, is sandblasting your barrel surface. I would suggest some arrow shaft of proper length to affix to the barrel and got the departure point of the spray and gases to out past the muzzle.

I had a dedicated 22 built, Kirk is busy and has yet to come up with a 22 Shiloh, So I went down the street and bought a 75 C Sharps Model 75 in 22 LR. Mainly the reason is to have a side hammer and the 75 can be had with a single set trigger. John S. and I had a pretty lengthy conversation on this as we have had issues many many years ago. He put in a SS trigger and shipped the rifle the day I ordered it. Due to the hard feelings on my part he set it with out Payment and after My FFL had looked it over and called me as he wanted one for him self! I called John and promptly paid him. John had stepped up to the plate so I did also, thats how I Roll (as my kids would say). The rifle shoots well but it took a bit to find the ammo it likes to suit me for accuracy level, I am pretty picky. I have won several matches with it and have placed well every time out with it except this past May at Alliance. I tried a lower stool (thought more stable for the sitting match) Due to some hip and neck injuries I can not sit on the ground as My right leg falls asleep in a matter of moments and it is quite and I mean quite painful. I never do well in a sitting match, and mainly why I dislike and seldom shoot gong matches anymore. Lack of safety rules and a close miss just a few years ago, was the straw that broke that back for me on the Q.

Prone now: the rifle is used for cheap 200 yard practice on Long range reduced targets, and BPCR 22 Silhouette this rifle is a winner. At 200 yards though I have yet to find ammo that I like but after this years NRC matches I have some good leads, it seems that at 200 with a 22 is much like 1000 with a big bore BPCR. Funny thing is I got beat by using my 1068 fps Eley Match by guys using 1147 Fps ammo. Of course it was very windy.
