22a fails to feed 2an rd
Went shooting today.
I had a lot of fail to feed the 2an rd, happened several times with each of 4 different mags. It did not do it every time but enough to be irratating.
I have done a good cleaning, will try again.
Any thoughts?

If it is new then perhaps load the mags and leave in the safe for a week or two and see if that helps. Sometimes new mags are stiff and push too hard on the first couple of rounds. Worth a try.

Mine tended to do that with Federal ammo but not with Blazer so it may be the ammo. I have learned that RN feeds fine but HP don't

My 22A has fed every type of ammo i have used in it so far, hp, round nose, 36 gr, 40 gr just whatever. I am reasonably certain that I am nearing 10,000 rounds through it now. You must have some specific malfunction. I would suggest you do a complete teardown and look for a bent or broken part. Or take it to a good gunsmith.

Call S&W for a warranty shipping tag and send it in to them. They aren't fast, and it may take a couple of trips back to the factory to get it sorted out, but they will try to make it right. I had a problem with my first 22A that they could not repair, and they replaced the gun with a new one after the third trip back to the factory (different jamming problem). It seems that, with the 22A, you either get a really good one (probably the majority) or a real lemon.
