OK so I took my new one out today for its maiden voyage and to my surprise it would not shoot more than one round without an FTE. I tried CCI minimags and Federals and neither made a difference. So I took it back to Cabelas without a smile on my face and they are sending it in. Now that I have found this forum it appears this is a common problem. I really hope they fix it (and a couple of mags would be nice too!). It is a really cool little rifle. I am rabbit hunting with a buddy from work tomorrow, he too just bought a new 1522 (so far unfired), I will report back on its performance. At least I still have my old faithfull 10/22!
