Thank you gentlemen. I should have asked my question without the quote. Trying again...

Question: How much does a cylinder chamber have to be oversize in order to create an ejection problem in a .22 LR revolver?

I ask this because I too have ejection problems (sticking) with a couple of my .22 LR revolvers.
