The 22 conversions have fewer fliers and overall more consistent accuracy from 1:9 or 1:12 twist 5.56/223 barrels. Some 5.56/223 barrels can produce decent close range accuracy with their favorite ammo. I still have a Colt and Ciener 22 conversions but have four dedicated 22 LR AR-15s. I enjoy shooting 22 LR at steel plates behind my house whether rifle or handgun. The 22s arent as loud with less down range hazard than centerfire. With rimfire I dont have to police my brass for reloading. I have one CMMG 22 LR set up just like my duty AR-15 I carried as a LEO. I got a lot of beneficial practice with the CMMG 22 LR AR-15 and my Glock Advantage Arms 22 conversions.
I like the CMMG/Atchisson/Ciener pattern of 22 LR conversion bolt as there are several sources for parts and magazines. Ive lost track of the number of people Ive taught to shoot with a 22 LR AR-15 and 22 LR pistol.
