[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 1162908, member: 6146"] Got the "new" .22lr cylinder yesterday, and did some mild fitting this morning with one of mama's emery boards and some polishing cloth. Don't think I took much if any off, maybe .001" at the most. Cylinder drops in and drug just a bit before I did my polishing routine, now it's not too bad - just a little more drag than the stock .22wmr cylinder. Doesn't drag the barrel, and doesn't have much less gap than the mag cylinder has. Also seems to lock up just fine. Ran a cleaning rod/brush/swab down it to make sure things lined up, and then tried it out with some of those no-gunpowder Colibri rounds, and it shoots just fine. So I'm guessing all is well. I'll try it later with some "regular" .22lr and see how it does, but I'm thinking any drag it has now will "wear in", although I think it's probably good now. Thanks for the replies. [/QUOTE]
