Now this is a quandry, mine did but it is about 3-4 years old. When did they start to supply .22 WMR Sportster barrels that are not drilled and tapped? Jowl, did your untapped .22 WMR barrel come as a complete gun or as an accessory barrel and how long ago did you get it? I have both a .22 WMR Sportster barrel and a .22 WMR Ultra barrel that are both drilled and tapped, as are my .17 HMR barrel, both my .17 Mach2 barrels, my .22 LR barrel, and my both of my .22 LR Versa Pak barrels as well, one of which is now a .22 WMR barrel....<><....:)

This is a question I am interested in so thanks for the reply jowl and others....

ALL H&R rifle barrels are drilled and tapped, even tho the website doesn't mention it, the Sportsters with sight are also, my 22mag is older, but it's drilled and tapped as is my 2007 22Lr Sportster youth.  ;)

Thanks, thats good news,theres just somthing about drilling into a barrel that makes me cringe.  I assume it will take the same base as the handis?
