I appreciate the offer of the cast bullets but I’m hoping to use a jacketed bullet. Starting to think it a fruitless endeavor without rebarreling to something like a .22 squirrel

Peter,

I'm getting close to doing some "live" testing. They claim rapid expansion even at low velocities for the Midsouth bullet. Hopefully they work as well as the SPSX. As soon as the SPSX...

I need just a tad more penetration than I can get with a subsonic .22 LR. I think that even with the same weight bullet a jacketed lead core would give me the extra umph that I want.

Sako Rings

I prefer Sako rings either the old windage style or Optiloc's. I'm not a big fan of the Redfields with the set screw that mashed the top of the intergral rail. Leupolds are OK.

204r

I think the 204R advice is sound. More off the shelf ammo options available and more firearm selections as well.
