It's better to shoot for the moon and hit the fencepost than to shoot for the fencepost and hit the ground!
Bob, what ever became of this endeavor?

Not the correct Bob but I have seen this pistol in person, it's finished and while I didn't get a chance to shoot it Bob says it's a great shooter. I do know it's a great looking/feeling pistol.

Thanks Bobcat for the response. I have not been on here for a while.
The build has a couple quirks, but nothing serious. Not sure what reamer the chamber was cut with, however it will not reliably extract gooey match ammo. HOWEVER it shoots Federal Auto Match much better than expected, and it does extract for 50 to 60 rounds before needing a chamber cleaning. I have pretty much decided to leave it alone, and just shoot Auto Match through it.
We ended up cutting the Factory PTG Scope base into two pieces to get better access to the chamber. I have the same scope on it that I have on my Hunting Nosler M48 in 6.5CM. The Weaver 2.5-10X Classic Extreme. I purpose built the XP100 22LR as a Practice Pistol that I did not need to reload for. It has this goal covered just fine. Liking the reasonably cheap and available Federal Auto Match was a Bonus.
I need to get in more Range Time, we are down to two weeks till the Missouri Deer Season. Time is going by in a blur.
If someone can post pictures, I can probably figure out how to send them a picture to their phone.

See You at the Range
