How would you go about modifying a 22lr chamber to fit a 22WMR short? I am most interested in an easy dyi method to open up the chambers rim ledge to accommodate the wider rim of the 22WMR. The rim size of 22lr is about .278 versus .296 for the 22wmr short. The overall length of 22WMR short is .400 inches. I only have a hand drill and dremel for power tools.
Edit: I would want to leave the diameter of the 22lr chamber untouched beyond the .400 length of the 22WMR short.
Let's use a rough rider cylinder as the chamber that I would be modifying.
Why, for the fun of it.
