Aguila Super Sniper .22LR with Ceiner?

[exd3686]

Is it possible to run the 60gr. Aguila Super Sniper .22LR in with a Ceiner conversion and a 1-7 twist upper? Does the Aguila have enough power to cycle the action? How is the accuracy?

I was just pondering this the other day & tried mine in the back of our property. Too cold to test for accuracy, but function was 100%.

Thanks for the info. Glad to hear that the action cycled. Given the heavier bullet, I assume that the accuracy would be better in the 1-7 twist barrel but not to sure given the barrel and bullet diameter.

i have a 1/12 barrel and it shoots fine but i have only tried maybe 20 rds through it

I've found that SSS has plenty of power to cycle the actions of most firearms I've tried it. Unfortunately I don't have anything with a fast enough twist to stabilize it.

It functions perfectly and is my favorite Ceiner round in my 16" AR-15

It's VERY accurate at 25 and 50 yds.

1/7" barrel?

1/7" barrel?

My understanding is my CMMG Bargain Bin Rifle comes with 1/7 twist barrel. It is not marked so I'm assuming that's what it is

You could mark a rod and attach a patch, insert it into barrel push down 12" inches and count the rotations, should get you real close to your actually twist rate.

I've had mixed results with that ammo.
Being that it's .22lr I can't rule out that it wasn't simply mishandled at some point in the chain of custody & that's the actual issue.
What sort of round counts are you fellas looking at within your references?

My first 500 went well but the last 500 has had a high FTF rate.
