Rifle was sold many years ago but I still have the ammunition. I have another rifle which has been altered to .22LR - it's languishing in Dromia's emporium at the moment.

Check this out. The feat with the 72,500 blocks was done with three of these rifles.

Yes it can, but whether you would think it effective use of your time is another matter. You will only get 3 reloads from a fired case.

On the plus side I believe that the bullet is a straight sided one unlike the heeled bullet of the 22 LR so that would make bullet selection easier.

I stand to be corrected on the bullet type as it has been 20 odd years since I played with 22 win auto and my memory is now a forgetery.
