Hi all, Finally picked up my new 10/22 tonight and I'm having a few teething problems. This is a list of the parts Tactical Solutions .920 barrel Tactical Innovations Receiver Superior Concepts Tactical Charging handle and spring Rimfire Tech adjustable V-block Kid Bolt Kid Bolt Buffer Titanium firing pin EDM extractor Kid over sized trigger pins Kid 2 stage match trigger The rifle seems to function ok. however every couple of mags it jamms. A round extracts then gets caught sideways by the bolt as it chambers the next round. I have tried different ammo and get in will all of them. However it seems to occur less with the high velocity stuff. Do you think it is a running in thing as everything is new or do you think something is a miss?  I ran about 400 rounds through it tonight and it jammed about 16 times |
| I thought of that one aswell. I tried a mixture of mags. Promag 50 drum, MWG 50 round tear drop, TI25, standard ruger and buttler creek 10 round and 25 roung and 30 roung eagle mag. Strange thing is I could blast through 50 rounds no jams then put the same mag back in and get a jam. |
Well technically its not as there isn't a single ruger part on it and it isn't listed as a ruger on my FAC due to that. Just thought someone might have some ideas. I have fed the beast the following CCI Mini Mag Federal High Velocity Remington Golden Bullet Aguilla High velocity CCI Standard Velocity It jammed less with the aguilla HV stuff |
Well there's your problem, it seems the more you trick them up the problems you get. Mine is basic ruger and runs on mini mags and hardly misses a beat. It even copes with an old Eagle 30rd plastic lipped mag. Try asking over at Rimfirecentral, somebody there might have useful suggestions 
|
, but I salute your enthusiasm| Well I Try. I think it should be ok once its teething problems are sorted. The rifle feels well balanced and the Eotech is a good site. I tried the Eotech 3* mag tonight that the girlfriedn bought me ant thats spot on too. I just wished the rifle behaved a bit better. I have 500 rounds to run it in tomorrow night. I will see how it goes |
Well said Steve, my thoughts to a T. My 10/22 has never had a stoppage in the 5 or so years since I got it and I have thrown all sorts of ammo down range. Sorry me not much help. Tony |
Have you tried mounting it to one of these?  Might help when running round those mini-rifle stages |
Don't you normally have to buy it dinner and movie first ? |
Same here. I have a basic Ruger which I put a Volq. trigger in. That's it. The most reliable 22 semi I have. It's had 100s of thousands rounds of all sorts through it and it's won more comps and stages than I can remember in many different disciplines, from mini rifle to speed steels, adv tgt to 1500. All the action comps where speed and reliability are paramount. Sometimes £200 is all you need to spend. (that's incl the £40 1.5-5 power scope) |
LoL its not as heavy as I thought it would be. However I should have just got an AR in .22  It would have been less trouble. lesson learned

The word KAK springs to mind looking at this one |
All fixed. Working with no jamms  . However managed to scratch the barrel One of my stock screws holding the rail on was a couple mm too long. Its put a little round mark on the side of the barrel taking the red anodizing off. Theres nothing I can do about it, however its covered by the stock so doesnt matter that much. Its shooting fantastic now  Mousegunner-UK is not KAK. Its just not your cup of tea. I have another slot for a 22lr and will be getting a AR15 at some point. |
A scratch on your ghey pink barrel needs a suitable ghey fix…   |
