The triggers in these are not very desired, they look like a Timney but are nothing like it. Also they cut the cocking piece at an angle where the trigger makes contact. Have a gunsmith setup a better trigger and it makes a huge difference. Also change the firing pin spring if its never been done. Nice looking rifle!
If it were me doing a rebarrel yes I’d go with a 1-8 twist no less than 26” long. This rifle was simply rechambered not rebarreled hence the 1-14 twist.
It’s not a lot different than a swift. It has a few more grains if case capacity than the swift. I think it’s much better suited for heavier bullets over 65 grains.
@@Dmcquown all my Swifts have been 1in 14 twist which works good for bullets up to 55 grains . The swift I have now is a ruger 77mk2 it will shoot one hole group's at 100 yards with a 55 gr. Sierra game king at 3800 fps I use imr-4064 for powder . Deer don't like this load at all lol
Very strange that someone would do a 224" barrel in 1-14 rate of twist which is a terrible rate of twist that Highly limits the weight of bullets that can be used. I build and sell AR 10 uppers so one I do build and have sold is this 22-6mm Remington I used a Pac Nor super match barrel in 1-9 rate of twist so the guns owner can use a wide range of bullet weights.
This is the original factory barrel that someone reamed. A rebarrel is being discussed and a 1-8” 26” tube will probably replace this one if 22-6mm is the chosen chambering.
Looking forward to this series
I’m looking forward to bringing it to you. I just got the next set of loads worked up so hopefully getting to the range soon.
I enjoy your videos I like how you are straight up and now just trying to promote something
Honesty is the best policy! Thanks for watching!
Nothing better than blued steel an wood
Agreed!
👍👍
I have a 22-6mm AI with a 1-8 twist and it loves the 85.5 bergers.
That’s a screamer. I’d like to mess with this round in a rifle with a faster twist.
@@Dmcquown I love mine, I run a swift as well but both have their own purposes
@@Dmcquown also in the process of putting a 25 wssm together with a 1-7 twist to run the new berger 133gr

I will agree the trigger doesn’t break very consistently. It’s a friends rifle so it will be up to him what he changes on it. Thanks for watching.
Speed is nothing without accuracy..😉
Speed is fine accuracy is final!
only accurate rifles are interesting. fun day at the range though. why rebarrel 1:14 and limit yourself to 55grs?

This caliber doesn't look much different than the 220 swift that said keep your loads under 4000 fps or that barrel won't last long

@@deandepew7455 I bet not. I have shot a few deer with a 55 Sierra. 4064 is a great powder for the swift. Long live the swift.
@@Dmcquown I run 60gr sierra in my swift ohio coyotes bang flop. Love my swift
@@waynemayle865 I will have to give the 60s a try they would give a little more weight for whitetail
Similar to a wildcat from the early 1960s - the 224 Clark.
