Good night 20-222

After soaking in knowledge from this great site for a few years, this 20-222 thread has brought me along to finally join in. I had my first ever non-factory rifle put together from an early Shilen DGA 222 about 5 years ago. Jim Hart smithed his barrel on it to perfection using a Manson reamer I acquired. Thanks to all here who inspired the creation of my favorite rifle, some of you who were over on Saubier too at the time, if I remember right!

Congratulations to you. You have the makings of a darling rifle there. Be prepared to shoot some tiny groups! Such a wonderful chambering. The last shot fired out of my Tikka 595 Lilja 20-222. A fly met its untimely demise.
