Got a new sw22 Victory yesterday, took it out this morning & having stove pipes, double feeds, ejection problems. It hated Federal "Game-Shok" 40 grain copper plated solid. Tried CCI mini mags & still had 1 to 2 failures per mag. Is the gun just not broken in yet, is it the ammo, or do I have a defective gun? Can anyone help? Thanks, Bernie
 
You might try searching this forum for "Ejector Adjustment". There was a recent thread on this very problem.

I guess I'm just lucky. My SW22 Victory shoots everything, and is so far most accurate with Eley Edge.

Best of luck with a resolution.
 
My Victory has used cci std velocity with a couple of problems but recently I found a brick of Armscor 36gr High Velocity. All 50 that I shot worked perfectly. I know it's hard to find anything now but take your time for the right stuff or you'll be frustrated with the gun.

Take D Brown's advice. I'm betting this will make a difference.
 
Had the same issue with mine. Adjusted the ejector and now it feeds pretty much everything.

How to..

There are plenty of YouTube videos and pics online, but basically bend the ejector a little closer to the center of the bolt so that it will engage the case head better. There is an ejector groove in the bolt that can serve as a guide. Bend the ejector in until it just clears the inside of the groove.
