My old Stevens 44 is very accurate with the new .22WRF ammo. It might be even a tad more accurate except that when I had it relined I could find no one who had a .22WRF reamer, so had it chambered to .22WRM--a little "freebore" .... Never fired a .22WRM in it yet, tho. Got plenty of guns actually MADE for that ctg..
Sure hate to hear about jobs like that. It's easy enough to short ream the chamber and use a boring bar in the lathe to cut the rim recess. That's what I do with my .357 Max barrel reamer when I need to do either 357 Magnum or 38 Spl.
