kawi kid Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 At the range the other night and i was sighting in my brother in laws m&p 15-22 and the red dot scope he put on it. after I got finished and handed it back to him he shoots it once and say "fuck! why does it keep jamming?!?!" I walk over and look at it and he tells me it th last shot felt really weird cuz he got alot of gas in his face. I take it from him and disassemble it to start going over it and his is what I find....The casing actually split in half and part of it was still stuck in be barrel. This was all after he was giving me shit about spending a little extra on the big box of federal 22 cal over the blazer. Again cheaper isn't always better. He also had about 20 or more rounds that failed to fire or wouldn't feed because of manufacturing defects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevysoldier Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Damn. Glad it was on .22 and not something larger that could have done some serious damage. I had an M2 .50 that kept doing that. Sucked trying to get those shells out of the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obesityrules Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 shit it's .22, you only save a dollar on 550 rounds when you buy the cheap stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusion Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Just how much is he saving by using cheaper ammo?FWIW we've found CCI MM so far to be the most consistent in our 15-22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Just how much is he saving by using cheaper ammo?FWIW we've found CCI MM so far to be the most consistent in our 15-22.CCI MM is one of the most consistent in any 22cal That I've tried.Winchester always works for me also.I'll sometimes use Federal 22cal. A bit more accurate, I think.Remington 22cal doesn't feed right for me.I would never use Blazer anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beegreenstrings Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Only!Remington golden bullet 22CCI's pretty much any (but especially the velocitor)and Wolf match grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye614 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I have a 15-22 as well. If you want to shoot cheap stuff through it I would recommend the Federal bulk box (550rds) from wal-mart. It shoots really well through the rifle. If you go to the s&w forum you will see that just about everyone recommends it. If you want to spend a little more the CCI MM are the way to go. I usually just feed my 15-22 Federal Bulk and save the CCI for the p22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cdubyah Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Used the same ammo in my 10/22 without a problem. In fact, I've only had a couple of problems with 1000 rounds of it.It was pretty weird to see that many shitty rounds in one box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Ive shot about 3000 rounds of Blazer. Never had a problem, it is actually all that my ISSC likes. I honestly cant recall ever having a single issue with it, beside spilling it in my ghetto range bag.

kawi kid Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I always use federal from walmart. The 10/22 will eat them with out a problem along with the sig mosquito. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
