Rich, thanks for tightening up the math--I did the subtraction and did an estimate of the half. Theoretically, it would be a bit less if you're measuring the bottoms of the grooves. And .035, to me means MIG wire! I know the rest of the action of one of these probably wouldn't hold up for very long using them, but if it were the 6" liner, would you worry about running CCI Stingers through one? This round is responsible for three broken front toggles on three different 60s' Erma .22s.
