572 Choke Bore-smoothbore

[mopar lou]

Well I finally recieved my 572,, you can go to Auction Arms #5956821 and maybe still see pictures of it... It appears to be a Routledge type bore, but the barrell is marked "572 Choke Bore for 22 lr shot cartridges. it is bored apprx >.400" to a depth of apprx 12 1/2" then .22 smothe dia. to the chamber,, I have seen 572's marked smoothbore, and Routledge Bore , but not "Choke Bore" have posted on other rimfire sites to no avail, has anyone else heard of these??? mine was made in June of 1965
