Beeman P-17 with .22 barrel

I love my P17 but would rather it shoot .22 instead of .177. From what I understand it's a simple barrel swap to convert it to .22 or .20. As I don't have any other .20's I'll discount that and strive towards .22. It appears I can order a barrel from here, although they are out of stock:
http://www.specialtyshootingsportsoutdoors.com/store/air-gun-parts/weihrauch/barrels/weihrauch-hw40-beeman-p3-barrel-22cal/prod_1690.html
Has anybody ordered from that website before? Does anybody know of any other places I can order this part from?
It would appear getting close to 6 fpe is possible in .22 based on this page:

Is it really as simple as just swapping the barrel out? Who here as done this already and what was your results? I haven't had my chrony set up lately to see what my existing P17 does, but assuming top performance, based on your experience what is the best I should expect?

Oops, that 2nd link was related to the HW45/P1 not HW40/P3.
