I for one think there will be a great market for these barrels on 1022s if they offer any greater accuracy. So many of the aftermarket barrels come from the U.S. at great expense, so the market would eat a homegrown product that shows an improvement over the stock ruger barrel.

There are lots of arguements over the meaning of "pellet fussy" with respect to airgun barrels, but there is no doubt in my mind that a .22lr barrel which would cope better with different manufacturers ammunition would be a real advantage.
