      Didn't Mossberg make a rifle that shot long, long rifle and shorts? Loaded through the butt stock of the rifle. My cousin had one and I'm pretty sure it was a Mossberg.
      My dad and I used shorts after the dog's would tree a raccoon. I still have a partial box out of his gun cabinet that we used. He also liked the High Standard 9 shot revolvers. Always a tube feed rifle if possible to night hunt because of losing magazines.
      Shorts were used to kill our hogs for butcher also. Deadly little suckers within range.
      Great video!
      Keep'em coming!

    @davidmontgomery2929 4 роки тому

    Wow, you got this 22 short video out quick after our last correspondence! Good to see the Remington cycle them so well, the floating chambers can be a little finicky at times. I've been using 29g CCI Shorts, not the most accurate, but minute of squirrel at 20-30 yards. I also use them out of my bolt action Marlin xt-22tr, tube fed, super quiet. My newest plinker and squirrel getter is a Tompson/Center T/CR22. Cool light weight carbine with a 17" barrel, threaded muzzle....mine done in Reaktree camo. Would love to see you review one, with and without the can, or compare to a Ruger 10/22. Keep up the great videos, its obvious you have a great attitude about "A day at the range".

    My dad has a 550. It won’t shoot shorts or longs. He had heavier spring installed for LR only. It has shot lots of stingers and other high velocity without any problems.

    • @Dayattherange
      @Dayattherange  4 роки тому +4

      When high velocity ammunition like stingers are used in these rifles the floating chamber is know to get stuck or jammed forward preventing the firing of shorts or longs.

    From the groups your 550-1 is printing, looks like the barrel is worn out . Mine is doing the same thing. I have had mine since 1956. Over the years I have seen my shot groups getting bigger and bigger. Gunsmiths say I needed a new barrel or this one relined. I am 74 years in hospice, I think I’ll let the new owner worry about it.

    Ive got a Remington 550-1 that does not have a dovetail, from my research they made the 550-1 in a few different options depending on the year. So i had to drill and tap mine. Buy mine as well is a pretty straight shooter, however i have not had much luck with 22 shorts from mine, not sure if it was the batch i tried or what but the CCI HP Shorts i tested were all over the place.
