OK, so while we're wandering all over the Savage galaxy, I was just asked if a 219 could safely by rechambered to .225 Win. Said "no" because I'm an old chicken (actually a rooster) and don't think the .22 Hornet barrel is the right twist or maybe even bore diameter for a .225. Am I right? Or just chicken?

Wandering further, did Savage R&D ever try a .22 Savage HP in a 219? I never saw one when I was perusing Utica R&D remnants for sale at Numrichs around 1990, but didn't think to ask if they'd seen one.

Watch out for that black hole!!!!!
