Loving my 22 arc in a Howa mini action with Berger 80.5 full bore with AR Comp or Berger 85.5 hybrids with RL15.5

The bolt face is the only bummer. If you can't just slap a barrel on the action you have, its going to be a niche thing. You can have your .223 bolt opened up, but then you can't go back.

7.62×39 (ppc) bolt face. Not a biggie

Where did you find a shorter freebore reamer and what freebore is it? I spoke with jgs about drawing up a 60 freebore reamer for me last week.

This is out of 22 ARC 26" Bartlein Savage action very minimal load work up. Mainly shot a ladder to make sure pressure was fine. Info out of Sierra online manual for N540 28.2gr and 77gr TMK with GM205M for primers and Alpha Brass COL 2.20 was book spec. The temperature 96 in the shaded, "real feel" was 114 the mirage was boiling!! started shooting, cloud come over and it felt like the A/C was turned on, the group shifted right, was like it was two 5 round groups. Wrapped the barrel with a damp towel set the timer on the phone for 6 minutes, a thunder storm was on the way, shot the last 10 round group "slow and smooth". Mad rush to get packed up before all heck broke lose and didn't really look at the target until i got home. It was cool to me how the group shifted from very heavy mirage to none and the first was shot a lot more "deliberate" and the secound was lets get done before lighting turns me into stir-fry. A very short 20 minute range trip was very educational in many ways even for a 58 year old that has fired rifles his whole life.
