guys

since when did all of you guys pop out of the wood work as 10/22 nuts??

i did alot of reading and research on 10/22 barrels before i orderd my gm 16.5" fluted tube.

what i found from other 10/22 nuts on the net is that green mtn barrels are about the best bang for your buck barrel out. shooting right along side of volquartsen tubes and other high end 300 $ barrels

i went with the 16.5" because its suposed to provide the most velocity in the 22lr and all that talked about that barrel said acuracy is right in there with the longer barrels if not sometimes better.

at 16" the 22lr case has burned off all its powder and everything after that is drag and reistance. this is all what ivew read.

mine shoots great at 50 and alittle farther. though it is ammo tmepermental, but all tubes are.

i also bolted green mtn 17hmr tube on bolt action ruger, and ohhh my what an improvent. the stock barrel was 22"s and the gm 17 tube is 20" it is one fine shooting rifle.

so ive got nothing but good to say about green mtn barrels, exscept fot the fact that i want to get another barrel for either another 10/22 project or a 77/22lr

theyre very addicting.

have a merry monday

Evan
