First , thanks to all that post the great info on this forum. It helped alot when I was trying to figure out the problem child 15-22. I bought mine just after Christmas last year. The weather was really rotten most of the tim, so I didn't get to shoot it much. Everytime I did, though it would jam, misfire or fail to feed. At Easter the weather finally turned nice enough to take it out and really see if was going to work. I made sure the mags were loaded right and used ammo that I knew was good(CCI MiniMag). It still wouldn't get through a 25 round mag without messing up. So the next week i sent it back for the fix. I put a note in it asking if they could thread the barrel for a flash suppressor while they had it. I got a work order in the mail saying they would do it for $164!!
Needles to say, my 15-22 is still suppressorless. Since I got it back, it has been pretty much problem free, with most problems blamed on the ammo. I put a scope on it to see how accurate that "match grade" barrel was and I was pleasantly surprised. The target I have posted here was shot at 25 yards. 3 shots low and left; scope adjusted and the rest of the 25 round mag into the bull. This was shot with Federal 40 gr Champion ammo. I also shot some CCI Green Tag through it and it made one ragged hole at 50 yards that you could just cover with a quarter. Like a lot of guys here, I shoot the bulk Federal stuff form WalMart and it shoots better than needed for killing cans and bottles. It definitely turned into a real fun gun to shoot. I don't post alot an any shooting forums, but I'll try to put my 2 cents worth in here from time to time. Thanks again for all your help.
