If you have a 1:9 bbl the conversion may be pretty accurate with it. Just like with with heavy bullets, some 1:9 bbls shoot .22 very well, others, not so much. Just have to try it and see.

If you'd like to shoot cheaper, but still get realistic AR triggertime (double taps, follow ups, etc), you could look into a 9mm.

Or, depending on how much money you have, get both. I have one of each.

I have a 10/22 and as much fun as it is to shoot, I wanted to practice more with my AR so I went to the dedicated rimfire upper from Velocity. It is incredibly accurate and I now have a brick of .22 through it without any problems.

why do a dedicated upper, i have a CMMG .22 bolt conversion for my DPMS ar black dog machine 27rd mag works great. then again i also have a 10/22 with a 12x scope..lots of fun with both. takes 20 seconds to change a .223 to .22 in the AR..so i guess just personal preference....BTW first post for me been reading for a while.

EDIT: btw got it at AIMSURPLUS.com real friendly help when i had questions about other products..

Don't go into a 10/22 thinking it will be less expensive. It's just like BRD, once you start modding the 10/22 you will easily sink just as much cash into it, if not more, than you would have on a dedicated .22 upper... and probably still end up wanting the dedicated upper.
