You did a great job on the .22lr / .22 Magnum conversion article in THE BACKWOODSMAN magazine, one of my favorite reads. Just saying.

I read it too, GOOD JOB MAN!! Have you done many stories? We have a local pub and I have had a couple hunting stories published too. Not anything to make $$ on, but pretty cool just the same. CW

Thanks folks, love BWM and have enjoyed contributing to them. I have been out of the loop for awhile, but I'm restocking and making more shell cuffs in precedent to those who inquired/ordered first. I appreciate your patience and I'm trying to get everyone squared away by hunting season.

Good article in Backwoodsman. Backwoodsman is the only "outdoor" magazine I still read and get good/useful information from. As far as the .22LR/.22 Mag interchangeability, I (we as young teenagers) did this same thing about 55 years ago! Right after the .22WMR came out (1959?) we discovered that a .22LR would fit nicely in a fired .22 mag case. Since .22mag ammo was about 3-4 times the cost of .22LR ammo we started using .22 short and .22LR in our .22mag Savage 24's for plinking (one of the very first rifles chambered for the .22WMR) and save the .22mag for woodchucks and fox. We even made up a little tool to get the cut off .22mag case out of the chamber if it got stuck. This article brought back many fond memories.
