Lightbulb 22TCM rifle

They've hit Gunbroker at about $450.

The ammo's there, also.

Default hmm...

I'm always leery when the ad reads "natural Philippine wood finish".....that usually means naturally Philippine manufactured. Guess I'll be on the lookout for one of the members here to take the next step.

Rifle exhibited extreme over pressure with factory Amscor 22 TCM ammo. Bolt wouldn't open, I sent it back to Amscor the next day. I haven't heard from them since last Tuesday when I returned it.

very, very interesting... I just wonder why I would give up my .22 Squirrel for one of these? Neat little round.

That is troubling to hear. Have you heard anything from them yet?

A good friends gunsmith buddy got one last week. Got it zeroed and was getting close to one inch groups. But, barrel fouled very quickly and groups enlarged a good bit. He didn't say any thing about pressure but will ask. He's going to chrono it once he gets it clean.

Armscor sent me an email stating that the chamber was oversized and were going to replace the rifle with a new one. The next shipment is due at the end of the month.

I looked at mine with a borescope before I returned it and the bore was very rough.

Any further news on this? I have one on backorder and am getting second thoughts.

Anyone have a reamer for this caliber yet? I think I'd just as soon do a build as opposed to taking my chances with Phillipines quality. Thinking Savage.

Anyone else have any firsthand experience with these rifles? Trying to decide between one of these or just going with a CZ in 22 hornet. Thanks.
