Hello everybody, I've got an itch for a Ruger Single-Ten but I have a question on the Singel-Six.

From what I understand the Six has a different cylinder for the .22WMR round due to the round being a tad larger than .22lr.

Will shooting .22lr be less accurate than the .22WMR because of the slighty larger bore (or twist rate)?

I shoot mainly .22lr and dont really see a need (yet) for the .22WMR round but if it really makes no difference (besides cylinder count) I just assume get the Single-Six. If the Single-Ten is more accurate than thats the one for me.

Thanks
Steve
