Your laughing emojis are good.

I have only 3 rifles (although 4 chamberings) with stainless bls. I've many more without stainless, even though I sold 3 steel bl'd rifles on Saturday at our gun show. I bought one new (to me), a BRNO Model 511 in lovely shape.

Funny thing about the stainless bl'd guns - they are all wildcats and from .172", .308/.224(both bls.) .375.

The most interesting one, is the predecessor to the .22 PPC, when Ferris Pindel and Dr.Lewis Palmisano (IIRC) were working with it. They found 7.62x39 brass available in Lapua brass, so went with it, instead of the IMP .220 Swift 1.5" case they started with. That is what I chambered up. Nice little round and I use Wilson .22 PPC hand dies with my Arbor press for loading it.
Nice accurate little round, a little less powerful than the .22 BR. which I also had in the 90's.
