[nasher1 258]

I have recently acquired a 10/22 target rifle on the shop owners advice i also bought some rws subs and some cci mini mags both of which cycle fine I did try some Winchester subs but they jammed every time. What are people putting through their semi auto's with good results atb Roy

Eleys mate, I don't use anything else

My 10/22 likes Eley and Lapula/SK (subs) for best accuracy. It cycled Winchester fine.

Sounds like a feature of your 10/22. But all rifles can be fussy, even 2 straight off the production line next to each other can favour different ammo.

 

The Winchester is a staple of the 10/22 (and the Eley), a pal of mine has had a 10/22 longer than I can remember and swears by the Winchester.

 

Just a chance you have a bad batch, there have been some dire reports recently about Winchester production.

 

If the gun is used then I would suggest a thorough strip and clean regardless!

A friend of mine uses Winchester subs in his 10/22 no problem I couldn't get more than two shots through mine without a jam. I will strip it to clean and check if I need to replace anything.

10/22's are susceptable to crud round the chamber and bolt face. I use an old rotary toothbrush dipped in solvent to get into the recesses.

SKs in mine too

My pimped up and outrageously expensive Volquartsen custom 10/22 used nothing but eley subs and at 40 meters they all went in the same hole. Don't get me started on the magazines though.... That's the reason I now shoot a cz bolt action.

apart from testing it when I got home its not allowed out of the cabinet until Christmas day.I have already bought extra magazine's and ordered bits off the Internet, watched loads of YouTube video on how to strip, clean and improve the action and a little voice in the back of my mind is saying "Why the f**k didn't you just walk out of the shop with the nice cz varmint just above it".

I found the primers in the eleys were very gritty ( silica I believe) and consistently fouled the rotary mags in my AMT. I then changed to rws subs and cleaned the inside of the mags with cockpit shine. Result, first mag I put over 70 shots through it with no feed up probs.
