    .22 conversion kit for No1 MKIII

    Does anyone have any information about the .22 conversion kit available from Numrich Gun Parts? Is this kit something that Numrich had made up or is it some surplus item? Their description is vague, at best.

    If anyone has one, is it any good? How well does it shoot?

    It appears to extract the cases but, I do not see any way it can eject them so, I assume it's an extract and tilt the action kind of deal.

    Thanks in advance folks.

    It's a recently made item with no ejection capability. I had one some time ago and although the function was alright, the accuracy was very poor.

    they never had eject on any of them . the empty case falls down into the mag body.
    they work good with standard or target ammo but not so good with HV

    Thanks guys.
    I was wondering how they might do with .22 shorts.

    The one I had was not very accurate and had minimal rifling. Had to test fit to several different SMLEs to find one that that fit properly.
