Will it be a simple barrel change to convert to the 17M2 when it comes out in the fall?  I was going to buy a heavy match barrel and new stock in 22 but I rather wait if its just a simple change of parts and I dont have to buy a new gun.

You would think so, since the case head is a .22 LR.  Mags and bolts should all work as it did for the .17 Hornady.

I just read the article int shooting times and it sure seems like it.  They showed pictures and the overall length of the cartridge looks the same.  His article made it seem like you'd just have to rebarrel and possible get a new recoil spring becaus the recoil will be a little different obviosly.  Could be good!!!
