Which is more reliable,a dedicated 22 upper or a conversion?

I got a Spikes conv. and it works great so far.  It has a plug to make your upper "dedicated".

Reliability isn't in question with either. Dedicated is more accurate.

A dedicated is much better as the barrel is the correct size and twist for .22lr

Can't the regular ciener eat some bullets that the spikes dedicated can't? Like rem goldens? or do they not work in ether. I haven't shot them in a while but thought they ran fine in the ciener.

You can tweak a Spikes to eat Rem ammo, but they (GB's) still shoot like crap so its really not worth the effort.
