[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 833200, member: 12995"] Whip, I had a bicentennial .220 Swift at one point in time, about 11 years ago. Traded a set of tires for it. Then traded it to a guy I worked with (at the outdoors store) for his custom Model 7 .22-250 the same day. I never did find out what he did with it. We both wound up screwing the other over on the deal, because both guns had shot-out barrels. Difference was, he KNEW his was, but I had never shot the .220, so I was unaware. He came back to work the next day, showed me a target, and it wouldn't group a pie-plate @ 100 yards. LOL I felt bad, till I went to shoot his .22-250 he traded me, and it was almost as bad. So I had it rebarreled to a .308 Win, and never looked back. Best thing I ever did for that rifle was rebarrel it. My smith is GOOD! That thing was shooting 1 hole groups @ 100 yards. I've never in my life seen a rifle that was more accurate than that one was. [/QUOTE]
