...Bob...it doesn't happen...it's kinda hard to "lead" a barrel with a jacketed or plated bullet like are used on .22 Magnum ammo.
At one time I wanted to add a .22 Magnum cylinder to my 53 also...but when one was found they ran between $600-800...just was not worth it to me...
As to .22 Magnum not being "accurate"...would have to disagree... One just has to find the ammo one's gun likes. I have a 60s vintage Savage 24J-DL..it will clover leaf Winchester 40 grain JHP ammo at 50 yards...with the new 30-33 JHPs...2-3"... I thought I was messing something up but when I ran the Winchester again right after the CCI it put three rounds in a thumbnail again..
Below targets were shot with a Ruger 77/.22 Magnum stainless with the Zetel boatpaddle stock... The other is a 10" TC Contender...also a shooter.. All you got do is find the right load.
