Check your barrel mounts to make sure they are square....there was a slight issue with those in that the rear mount was not square to the barrel.

Put about 4-500 rounds through one today. I'm no seasoned shooter, but I was very impressed with the 10/22 takedown. Scoped, 60 yards, pretty accurate. Great gun for the money!!

A brother of mine just got one, fresh out ot the box shot straight and had no issues with ejecting shells like some semi-autos. In one afternoon he ran about 500-600 rounds through it. Both of us were very impressed with this rifle. Just buy more magazines for it because you will spend more time loading then shooting.

X2 lots of time loading mags! Lol. It's really too bad the bx-25 mags are illegal in Canada as other mags sometimes don't function well... So I e heard. We had 5-6 butler creek steel lips mags and ran a few different types of ammo through all of them. Great thing was the cheap Winchester rounds preformed the best! At least 2-300 rounds with a single jam! Makes for a fun day, but a sore thumb from all the reloading.

If you have the steel lip mags get the loader for them. Not perfect but speeds it up a lot.

I saw it a few days ago and got excited at the $379 price.....then I saw the date, and it all made sense.
