CRITERION 22 RIMFIRE BUILD

Criterion 22 Rimfire

John of Kentucky sent us some photos of his recent 22 Rimfire build using a Criterion rimfire barrel blank and Zermatt Arms RimX he purchased from Northland Shooters Supply. 

Here are the specs on the barrel John ordered:

–    ​27” Criterion Barrels Inc. – Stainless Match- Heavy Varmint Contour (.900” Muzzle Dia.)- 22 Rimfire- 16 Twist with a Taper Lap

–    ​Zermatt Arms RimX Left Hand Action

​Here is what John had to say about his build:

“Just got the 22 LR blank chambered and fired up. 

It’s doing great! I am impressed! 

​I have shot a lot of rimfire, this barrel is on par and is as good as any barrel I have had. Mike Gross cut my chamber, and anyone that knows Mike, knows he has cut several champions.  He said it had great steel, no hard or soft spots, and the slow to abrupt taper was as good as any he had felt. 

​Here is a 50 yard group, 10 shots. Mounted in a MDT ACC chassis.”
