I plan on having a rifle put together with a 26 inch barrel for my .22 Nosler.

Probably a 12 or 14 twist. I reckon I am only going to shoot the light bullets.

One nice thing about that AR Stoner upper is that is the same price as the barrel blank that I have now!

Pretty reasonable way to try something new!


If a whole new build though why not just go to the 22-250?


Doing the 22-250 "right" requires an AR-10 or an in house 15 build.

Very few willing to do the 22-250 on a 15 and none willing to do it for what one can get into a 22 Nosler. Midway isnt pimping 15 bolts, uppers or barrels for 15s in 22-250....

I still think the 22 Nosler will find a home in Sako Vixens, Interarms and the wee actions with a 1-8 barrel.
