Looking for some information on converting a 1907 WSL rifle to a 22 cal center fire either 218 bee or 221 rem fireball.I have converted a few already to other cartridges that similar in profile to the original cases with excellent results .
I read a line about a wsl rifle that was converted to fire 218 bee but can't find any other snipits of information .My concern is can the straight blow back 1907 action successfuly function with a bottle neck cartridge .I have enough parts to make up another rifle .
I have read on other forms where they keep saying it won't work ,but nobody has stated that they tried it .If anyone has tried this I would be interested in their results weather it actually worked or didn't work before I try as I am not opposed to learn from others experience
any assistance will be appreciated Cheers Peter
