Let me preface this with 'this ain't no bullshit'. I setup at gun shows once or twice monthly. I spoke with a man at one show that modified a rem 580. He works at a cnc shop and apparently has run of the shop. He got a set of prints from somewhere and made several 580 bolt heads for 5.7x28 case. He has made 5 or 6 rifles. Said he wanted a reloadable 22 lr. I furnished him with some 42.5 gr. Powder coated cast bullets. He shoots them at around 1100 - 1150 fps, says they give him 1 in groups at 100yds. He swears he head shoots squirrels with that load. Says it is extremely quiet and deadly.
I asked him why he went to all that trouble, 'because I can' was his reply. Sounds like a good enough excuse for me.
