    If you rebarrel it it will work easily enough, can't/won't rechamber Tikka barrels

    The steel is "funny", it picks up even with a new reamer, creating rings etc in the chamber & its hard on the reamer.

    It is bad enough cutting a thread on it, very few will re-chamber them, the failure rate is too high.

    For some reason we haven't had that trouble rechambering 223 to 22 Terminator, yet, maybe we have been lucky...
