i just went to the range with my brand new SR22 and shot it for the first time. quite a few failure to feeds at first, the guy at the store did suggest 1400 fps ammo to break in the the gun but 1300 was the best they had in stock at the time. so i went with that.
after about half the box of ammo ( 100 round box ) the shells quit ejecting almost every shot, i would pull the trigger and hear click, racked it back and the old shell was stuck in the barrel and i had to get the shell out. this happened time and time and time again. some of there were actually hard to get out, almost like the shell was to big for the barrel. i am guessing it was the ammo, or maybe the barrel was dirty or needed oiled, maybe i should have cleaned it before i shot it for the fist time. i will mention i was gripping the gun as tight as i could, much normal that i usually grip a gun when i shoot, i know if you limp wrist it it can cause issues so it was not that.
when i got home i cleaned the gun side some bullets in and out of the barrel quite easily while it was still apart, put it back together and assembled it, than i loaded up a few clips and kept racking the slide, it ejected the bullets every time so it does not seem like a ejection mechanism failure, it seems like the shells were to big for the barrel after the bullet left the shell.
anyone have any thing like this happen before. i did read a review at bass pro shop for this ammo and someone did say their SR22 hated it and was having all kind of feeding and ejecting failures. but that is he only thing i could find about it with that ammo, anyone else ever have issues with the super x ammo..
thanks
