cold rolled

Depends on what your steel is and if you can heat treat it correctly.

Commercial .22 barrels are cheap as fuck anyway.

>>33812308
just buy a 22 barrel blank... already bored and rifled. just needs to be chambered.

>>33812308
It's probably strong enough for a couple hundred rounds through it at least.

Make it a lot thicker than a normal barrel.

>>33812308
What kind of thief calls himself cold rolled and robs strength?

You're on some kinda drugs there OP.

>>33812308
do you have a barrel cutting machine ?

because that costs a little more than a barrel blank

I made a pistol barrel from 0.5 inch, chambered and built a rifling tool for it too. Just by looking I can say that I could probably go thinner if I wanted.

I made a rifle with 10" of barrel liner. First inch is soldered into a mild steel rod which in turn is JB Welded into the receiver. Rest of the barrel is inside a likewise JB Welded carbon fiber tube, 8mm inside, 12mm outside, which fits into the last 1/4" of the steel rod. Has several hundred rounds through it without problems. Barrel liner isn't dirt cheap but it's not very costly either. Local gunsmith might have a short section to sell cheap. As long as you stick with subsonics (as I do) it'll be plenty strong.

True enough. Most folks will likely do a shitty job of it. Skills these days... it's sad.

Well how's he going to get better if he doesn't try?
