Re: the Bentz/Benz question - From

CHAMBER: The barrel has a very special chamber designed for accuracy. This "Benz" chamber is tighter and has a shorter tapered throat or lead into the rifling. This throat is intended to perfectly center the bullet in the rifling prior to firing the round. This is a common throat in a match semi-auto rifle, but it is also NOT a universal "shoot all" chamber. It requires good ammunition. Most promotional ammunition will not function well in it. That is by design; we have designed this barrel as an accuracy barrel.

Semi-auto .22 Long Rifle
The drop-in barrels we manufacture for the Ruger 10/22 are chambered with a "Bentz" semi-auto match reamer and it is not as short as the other match reamers we use. Unfired ammo can be extracted from this chamber. We do not recommend using CCI Velocitor or Stinger ammo in the 10/22 barrel.
You're both right! :roll:

Only Magnum research call their semi-auto semi-match chamber Benz, to everyone else it's Bentz.
It's not a match chamber, it's slightly more loose at the back to aid with gas blowback extraction, from what I've read at least.
I don't read my own signature!

Trust me it's Bentz not Benz, Bentz was etched on the reamer used on my rifle.

Still arguing about the same thing IMO - but I'll leave them to sort it out.

Bambam - rather than being bitter here - why not man up and air your grievances with the man himself ?
I have his number if you want it and he welcomes a call from you.
