if you have any barrel that has some sort of target chamber you do not want to try to shoot stingers out of them. let me clarify that i'm talking about a semi auto. don't think they will work well in a bolt gun either but they will be a pain to try in a tight chamber semi auto. there are a couple of barrel makers who market a stinger chambered barrel. personally if i want to shoot hyper stuff i would just shoot Velositors.
