    Winchester 60 ammo question.

    I picked up a classic rifle and restored it. Im wondering how much of a velocity 22 lr it can take. I mostly have high velocity. I have one box of 325 count of federal 1200 FPS. Used some of them. To zero it. The restore came out real nice. I would hate to break a nice classic rifle.

    High velocity 22 LR came out in 1930 and new guns were widely adapted to handle the pressures by 1932.

    I shoot the 1200fps plus stuff regularly in my Win. 67A and it is still going strong--and accurate.
