    I've got an old ( 1913 ?) Winchester pump action 22 that does that, but usually after 25m. Has no rifling at all so bullets tumble like a bastard.

    if its that bad.....getting someone to counterbore the muzzle MIGHT work,certainly got stuff all to loose..basically what you doing is moving muzzle back by an inch cleaning up the egdes of it and hiding it internally.....

    You're cheap (so I've heard....)
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.

    My knackered 22 was my granddads and looking down the bore there is basically no rifling left. I do like the exposed hammer though. Never thought you could rebore etc... Could be worth it.

    Can someone like a mod add that to the truths thread (with naming credits?). That is gold...
