I had another post about me purchasing my first ar. That thread went down hill at a fairly fast rate so I will not be mentioning what brand of ar I am going with. But I have a question about some .22 conversion kits. One that I saw got some decent reviews (albeit on YouTube so I take that with a grain of salt) but the cmmg conversion is one that I am referring to. I know that the videos I've seen were using a 1:9 twist out of a 16" barrel. The rifle I would be getting has a 1:7 twist. Is that an issue with .22?
I know that .22 have a higher twist rate because the bullets are lighter so I don't know if 1:7 will stabilize it enough. I've also heard various opinions on the cmmg kit because it's only replacing the bcg. So would it be a better option to just buy a dedicated .22 upper? Thank you in advance for any help. And for any members that were in my other thread you should have gotten a pm but if not, thank you for the advice in that thread as well.

Again, more just curiosity then anything at this point.
