ok tom, i think we were discussing 220 in a 120 back (see subject line)
which is operationally impractical... I suspect 120 in a 220 back would be
equally impractical, as the load and unload markings in the 220 mag are set
up for twice the leader of 120. Also think the spacing between frames
changes with both mags, guessing it might be insufficient with the set up
you suggest as it is designed to crank film with half the thickness... all
this is guesswork as I have never tried it...
