M&P 15-22 Working Great!!

[Jase3gt]

I finally got to the range today to try out my rifle after getting it back from S&W. It worked great. I put 100 rounds through my Springfield Armory XDM and then 300 rounds through the 15-22 without a single issue. I made sure the iron sights were still sighted in and then sighted in the Barska which works great. I noticed that if I turned the intensity way down for inside the range it worked even better.
All 5 of my magazines seem to be working good too. In two weeks when I'm visiting my parents we'll be putting a lot of rounds through both guns. My dad, my niece, my wife, and myself will all be using it. It should be fun. I can't wait.

What ammo are you shooting? I'm still getting failures to feed every couple of magazines.

Someone needs to find a way to tweak these magazines. And share the information.

I have had the best results with CCI ammo my Favorite are Stingers

[maxicooper]

CCI Mini Mags, CCI Stinger, CCI Std. Velocity, Federal Lightning bulk, these work flawlessly on my 15-22.

I shot Fiocchi. I did have to be careful loading the magazine because a couple of times it stacked up one side but I always caught it when it happened.

congrats and welcome to the dissorder MOSTLY FED. VALUE PACKS 550

I have over 500 rounds through my 15-22. I shoot Federal 550 Value Packs exclusively. They work well in my SIG P226-22 Classic as well as in my Beretta 92FS with a Beretta .22 kit on it. Accuracy is good enough for my purposes. They will shoot to .5" out of the 15-22 with iron sights at 50' if I do my part.

COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF

[iflyfish]

I went out yesterday and fired 200 rounds. I started having a lot of FTEs. I cleaned it, put a screwdriver between the ejector and gave it a little twist. Fired 150 more with only a few FTE.
Went back out today and fired 400 more rounds with zero problems (except one FTF in which the round was struck hard).
I used Federal Bulk, Federal Auto Match and Federal Lightning.
I'm up to around 1500 rounds.....

Most of the time I've been shooting at the public range in Manchester, NH. But I would like to join one of the clubs around here after January.
