slumlord44,You're correctin saying the Brit had a "thing" for relining barrels--I've had several small Martini .22 training rifles with Parker Hale liners and all were accurate shooters.Still have one, for my grandson--Fritz

Right now I have David Kaiser installing one of Mr. Taylor's .357 liners liners in a very rare miniature Snider. It was originally chambered for the British .380. In this particular case it was same as a 38 Colt long. The first 3"s at the chamber end had been "deactivated" with a plug. I suppose we could have rechambered it, but 2"s of free bore didn't appeal to me. Besides his reputation for making superb liners, I chose to use Mr Taylor's liner, because he could furnish one in the correct diameter to clean up the chamber, but still leave enough of the original barrel to encase it. It also has the correct twist for the .38 Colt.   
As far as I was concerned, the rifle was worthless if it could not be shot.

Joel, it's actually a TJ's liner, John Taylor is not involved in making them...though I'm sure he appreciates the kind thoughts!

Well......... just went through this with John in the past couple of days and he does make the cut-rifled liners he uses. Due to the additional labor involved (turn down, bore, ream, rifle, etc.), is almost the same cost as a new barrel. If you want to save a special barrel and want cut-rifled, then that is the way to go. The liners from TJs are hammer forged and are also excellent liners.

Got both guns back yesterday. Quarter sized groups at 50 yds. Savage having feeding problems with tight chamber. Something to play with. Remington slicker than snot. It will probably become my favorite. Will play with amunition when I have my feeding problems worked out. I'm getting tangled up in these pump 22s.

Very nice. Like that removable magazine.

Slide-action .22rimfires are great. Had my brother's 1890 Win lined with a TJs liner (shorts, only) for his B-day last year and I have a 1906 that was factory rebarreled with a Model 62 barrel and refinished and we have great fun shooting them. Taking mine to our next CLA silhouette match to see how I can do.
