A few weeks ago I started getting light primer strikes on the 22 LR barrel. Never an issue with my centerfire barrels. The firing pins on the 22 LR barrel looked o...

Re: Bullet construction

There are a lot of interesting posts over on the steelchickens forum from the late Dan Theodore, who spent a great deal of time testing and evaluating bullet construction and performance for the 500 meter rams.
