  • Very cool. I just rebored my 10/22 to .600 Overkill using a potato peeler and a butter knife.

  • Always like to see an older weapon brought back to life. Thanks.

  • @masterskiier06 You would only re chamber to a caliber where pressures wont exceed the limitations of the current barrel. If this is kept in mind, it is as safe as can be.

  • he always so excited ......

  • @Andreas191280 There is a guy who does it, search on forum kammeret for him.

  • @SaVAg3xMInD308 it cost alot more to buy the tools to make 22lr into a mag its cheaper to buy a 22 magnum

  • That seems like that would compromise the strength of the barrel. Can someone shed some light on this?

  • And thats the way it is.

  • @SaVAg3xMInD308 buy a .22 mag

  • i want to make a 22lr a 22 mag what whould i have to do

  • Hey, you just rebore it to .357 but after a lot of use let's say, can you bore it to .44 mag and so on?

  • love the video really good
