Axholme Ferreter 0 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Just got a brand new CZ style .22LR. Love the gun and doing quite well with it but just one niggle. With a full (5) magazine the top of the nose of the first round sometimes jams on the top of the entry going in to the chamber. I just tap it with my finger and it then goes in OK. The following 4 rounds in the mag go in no problem its only ever the first one. Has anyone else had this problem? Will the gun/mag bed in or have I got a problem? All the best AF Quote Link to post

Axholme Ferreter 0 Posted October 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Thanks for the replies. I was planning on getting a spare 10 round mag anyway so I will give that a try. All the best AF Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Probably a plan to try another mag....I recently got a CZ HMR with metal mag and had all sorts of problems with it, took it back and found it was actually 2mm short..unbelievable, the gunsmith noticed it as mine and another were stood next to each other on the counter...we were all gobsmacked, me, Mr L , my lad, the gunsmith and the shop owner, none of us could believe what we were actually looking at...been fine since I got a new mag!!!

sully5328 0 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Hi mate.Just got a new CZ Style myself.Also get the same problem on occasions. It only seems to happen on metal mags.Local gunsmith said it is because the new guns are designed for the new plastic mags. I dont now if that is 100% gen. but i dont have problems with my plastic mag. Quote Link to post
Axholme Ferreter 0 Posted October 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Ta for the info Sully but mine is a plastic mag. I am going to get a replacement anyway so hopefully that will solve the problem. All the best AF Quote Link to post
jamie g 17 Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 (edited) its the inside of the mag that makes the problem. it dont sit right so when you put the mag in and bolt forward the head of the bullet is sitting to high so dont bolt properly.

Fieldsports 155 Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 Just bought a new CZ .22 bolt action with synthetic stock and black 16" barrel. got 1, 5 shot mag and 2, 10 shot mags as spares and never had any bother YET. stuck about 300 through it the other night and ( no probs ) but reading this thread is making me paranoid.

Cheers it will be fine mate its just the ears on some mags that need opeaning abit to let the bullet sit better in the mag. you see in the 5 shot ones the 1st 4 will be fine but if the mag isnt right then ever bullet you put in is at a bit of a different angle then it should be. this then makes the last bullet sit at a funny angle. if yours is working fine then leave it well alone.
