22 Waldog Brass **FOUND**

Bought a 22 Waldog barrel a while back and want to give it a whirl. I have no idea on the condition of the barrel or if it'll even shoot worth a damn but I'd like to find out for myself.

I have a sizing die from Redding actually stamped with '22 Waldog' so I should be good there, but if anyone has brass languishing in a drawer or bucket they want to get rid of please let me know. If the barrel is shot out I don't want to waste a bunch of new 220 Russian brass finding out.

Thanks

You need to know just how far the shoulders need pushed back for your chamber. I chamber my barrels .100 short and then size the brass for a semi crush fit. Kinda importantly

Lee,

The barrel says 'Ratigan 22-100 .243 neck' so I guess it's the second coming of the Waldog not the original -.125" but I think it's what you described above?
 
Mike Ratigan shot the .100 shorts a lot a few years back. He did well with them He really knew how to make them shoot. I’m sure you’re in good hands.
