If you will take some time and read other rimfire forums, you will find that no manufacturer of the semi auto rimfires in this price range have all their products give 100% trouble free operation.
I had no idea that such a slight difference can cause so many problems, thanks.

I don't understand how they can make the same type of ammo but it varies by so much.
