I have the new england 22lr sportster ss youth. I was wandering if i could bore the chamber out to acomidate a 22 mag cartrage? Is the bore on a 22 lr the same as the mag? I know the 22lr and 22 mag cartrages r a couple 1000's different in diamiter but i have a 6 shooter that has a 22lr and 22 mag magazine and shoot both rounds out of the same barrel. just want to no if anyone has ever heard of single shoot 22 lr rifles being modifed to fire a mag. Thanks

i no sure, but contact nef. i think you can send them your action, and just buy another bbl, 22mag, and they fit it for you. All rimfires of a certain model number can do this. Also they make their centerfires to do the same thing. but they all have to be of a certain action/receiver model. also , you can ask them to lighten the trigger, they will do it for free.
