    .22 barrel bore and re sleeve

    Is there anyone on the forum who has drilled out an old .22RF and re sleeved ?
    There are heaps of videos on line and it looks easy enough to do.
    But would need a barrel sleeve and the correct deep barrel drill from Brownells.

    Or does anyone have a deep drill that I could use at a cost etc.
    I'm picking there are a few out there that have only been used once.

    I doubt there would be any barrel sleeves available in NZ? But might be pleasantly surprised

    Last time I was raiding Arthur Cleland's barrel rack he had a few .22 and possibly .17 barrel liners in stock. Also has all tools to fit them. Im heading down there now so will confirm they are still there shortly
