Dave, I'm thinking that back when Erma made these conversions, the .22 LR cartridges were pretty puny compared to Hyper Velocity .22's of today...they had to add that extra 1 1/2" to the .22 barrel insert to get the toggle to function with the lower pressure cartridges back then...Now, that Stinger would be too much pressure for the full-length .22 barrel insert...Shortening it should bleed off enough pressure to let it toggle the action but not hammer the crap out of it...
