The answer is yes. Try not to let the blue color get much below the shoulder. roger

Chuckduster,
Load up a stout load, something you would consider safe in a 22/250. That way you will get cases properly sized to the new chamber and no headspace problems. This is no time for weiner loads.After that you can back off on the charge if you like. You're going to like this chambering, I have two of them and I sure like mine!
