Looking at the photos on rimfire central,
the .222 REM is X'd out and .219 DON
is added below C C JOHNSON
this is typical of what CCJ did if a customer wanted a barrel rechambered if it could be done.

Picked up a set of Redding 6mm x 30-30 AI dies, that was a good hit.  I’m going to have Lilja send a 29 inch 1:10 barrel blank to CPA, who now has my action.  12 - 14 weeks. 

I’ve been really enamored with this CPA bench rest rifle in 22LR and am giving serious consideration to having Lilja send a second 22 LR barrel blank along at the same time. 

That’s a substantial commitment.  A second breach block and lever is a chunk of change and they don’t give the stock blank sets away either.  I’m really fond of that bench rest stock, I would probably not want that #4 barrel though.
