I have a .220 swift B model in the gunroom from 1996. Still hasn’t been fired.

Year back I had a deposit on one and let a gunsmith I trusted talk me out of it. "Those dang rifles are a bugger to get to shoot right"
Should have never listened to him.
One day I'll own one in 7x57. There was a several yr run of guns that wouldn't shoot, without adding a barrel accurizer to the receiver extension with set screw and a few other tricks to tune them. 7x57 is an awesome cartridge, too!

...Should have never listened to him.
One day I'll own one in 7x57. I have an RSI in 7x57. Nicest gun I own and likely the nicest I will ever own. The problem with 7x57 is you can’t logically justify another rifle in another caliber for North America. It does it all and it does it well. At least, that is what my wife would tell me if she knew. In the meantime I’ll have to figure out how to sneak another rifle into the closet.
