i also purchased a 222 / 20 gauge this summer, but i decided because 222 Rem.ammo is so hard to find and i wanted my son to have simple way of buying ammo because he never has had much interest in reloading , so i rechamber this o/u into a 223-556 / 20 gauge rifle shoots just fine.

What a great idea. There's lots of 223/556 ammo available everywhere. If the [bleep] really hits the fan. I think you will always be able to get 223/556. After reading all the posts in this thread I almost wish I didn't sell it. But the new owner should be happy with it. Really like the rechamber idea.

Just go buy you one that came in .223. I have a .223/20ga with a composite stock. You see them pop up for sale.

Nice drilling.
I have the exact same one I bid in a local auction, unfired. (Until it go to me)
I built 300 rds of .222 ammo for it.

I put a 73 rail and red dot on it and it's now in a case in the back seat of my truck as a 'bug out' survival gun.

I'm sure I will like it. I've wanted one for years.
