Reliability-Opinions of the M&P 15 .22

[Wee Hooker]

I really like the feel and function of these rifles. I have one of the new MloK Performance Center models. It's only been to the range twice but I'd classify it as very reliable. I don't recall having a FTF/FTE(from short 10 round mags) yet. I started with cci mini mags and finished with Fed Auto match and it ran excellent.
That said, I'm so far unimpressed with it's accuracy. With both CCI MMini Mag and Fed Auto Match, I was getting 1.5-2" at 25 yds and 3-4" at 50 off a bench with a decent 9x scope. This puzzles me a bit as I know the PC rifles were (until banned) popular in Appleseed events where grouping under 1" at 25 yds is required. I've also read on other forums that the std models are known for 3 mOA . Admittedly, I have not tried a large variety of a,,o or run a JB bore paste treatment on it yet.

Been a while since I started this thread. I actually asked for a friend at the club that shoots at the Tuesday morning retirees shoot. He purchased it abt 3 weeks ago and is very happy with it. I knew nothing abt it. Thanks for all the help, he is on his way to being a proud owner of his. Larry

I had mine out for the first time today. At 25 yards it took 1 click on the front sight to bring it down, and 2 clicks on the rear to shift it left, and just like that, it was zeroed. Then I started shooting at a laundry soap jug and thought I was missing it, but the Mini Mags were going straight through without knocking it over. If it holds zero over time I'll be more than happy. I had 1 FTF, but I didn't have the mag seated right, so that one is on me.
