Default 10/22 Mag. to 10/17 HMR

Wondering if it was at all possible and if it were, who are some of the manufacturers that make the conversion barrels? I know that the .17 HMR is just a .22 WMR necked down so the theory is not all that farfetched. Just want to hear some info on this one guys. Thanks

Do a search on the web for 17HMR I believe I saw several when I was searching for info about this caliber.
I got a NEF single shot and it is one neat gun. Nothing to report on the ground yet but soon...........

Shilen was selling the barrels several years ago and making the conversion. Give them a try.

The only person I know of making the switch from 10/22 to 10/17 is Volquartsen. I saw one of the "10/17"'s at the last gun show for $670. Nice looking gun. Their webpage addy is.....

not sure how much they are selling them direct to FFL's though.. might want to give them a call.
