22 LR through 223 chamber adapter in AI chamber?

[WestKentucky]

Is it safe or smart to shoot a 22lr through a 223 chamber adapter in a 223ai chambered contender barrel? My concern is blowing out the neck portion of the chamber adapter in the short area where it would be unsupported.

Most of the chamber adapters ive seen/used are steel and plenty strong enough to deal with the rounds they are chambered for san support.
What would actually kinda concern me, if the chamber adapter IS steel, is that ackley chambers are ment to be a slight crush fit on standard ammo. Not sure if it would damage the chamber, adapter, both, or neither.

Always thought about getting some of these from mca sports. especially since theyre so close, right in anchorage. I could probably take my rifle right to them and have them make a perfect match for my chamber. 30 carbine in 30-06 would be cool.

I shoot 9mm out of my 20ga with a 11" insert, kinda a lot actually. Ive only ever fired 2 or 3 rounds of 20ga lol.
Ive considered getting an insert made to shoot 32s out of my 06s before.

I want about a half dozen 32 long to 30-30 adapters. That would be a lot of fun. Would be slow to load the adapter, then load the adapters into the gun, fire, and knock 32s out of the adapters to start over.

If you email MCA at [email protected] and ask how much it'd cost for him to make you an adapter for the AI chamber you have, he'd more than likely make it. Will probably cost you $40 for a custom job and take 2-3 months to get.

That might be the route I go, but I was hoping to get one to work between a 223 rem AR and the 223AI contender. It just adds cost, so not a big deal but I was hoping to do 1 and be done.

You could always ream the Ruger out to 223AI and get the custom insert made!

Should still maintain use of factory 223 without a problem.
