Who makes the best 22 nosler barrel? Thinking about getting one for a Halo lr thermal. Or opinions on weather or not it is worth it over a 5.56. Thinking some 55gr bullets would really hum out of it.
Thanks

Take a look at the Creedmoor sports website, they usually seem to have some in stock.6mm Hagar brass seems to be extremely hard to find.
I had 1 for a short time, I got the bug and bought a barrel, brass, dies. Even with the gas turned down it was hard on brass that was super soft. I couldn't unload it fast enough. Sold the whole works for $200. Heavy buffer etc didn't mean anything.Who makes the best 22 nosler barrel? Thinking about getting one for a Halo lr thermal.

I after got the bug for a 224 Valkerie, the barrel sat there for about 8 months because I kringed everytime I thought about the 22 Nosler until a bud said he wanted a 224 V. Damn, it was his lucky day, I got it on sale. He shoots all factory so I'm sure it's not messing brass up. Pretty much decided I'm sticking with the Wyldes.I looked very hard at doing a Proof CF upper in .22 Nosler. Glad I passed after reading this.
What load are you shooting out of your 22 Nosler ?I shot 204 for a few years for coyotes, it kills them
But I did get a lot of runners. They died but ran. The 22 nosler just seems to hit much harder and dropped them on the spot.. I was getting around 3850 FPS out of a 32 grain Hornady vmax out of each of my 22” barrel. I’m getting around 3550 with a 55 grain 22 nosler.. I can get around 3700 out of 50 grain vmax in 22 nosler. shootong steel really made me realize how tiny that 204 bullet really is it you can barely hear hots at 200 yards plus. I’ve killed coyotes out to 550 with a 204 and had it pass through but just loving the 22 nosler
