I received stronger replacement springs from another board member, seems to be the fix & if so, not a big issue for such a nice 22 at this price point!
I'm not sure when I will have another range report after the springs are replaced, but I'll update you guys down the road for sure.
Cheers

Took mine to the range Wednesday. Only got to 30m to sight in but cci quiet were pretty much touching. And it was windy here. I hope other ammo shoots as well
Update, Gunco is going to replace the two small springs on the extractors on the bolt, polish the chamber lightly & may re-profile the shape of the left extractor. Told him I didn't want to muck with it too much as it is a TACK driver!
Will have it back next week & once I hit the range with it next time I'll let you all know if the one stuck casing issue I had is resolved.

Thanks Jay!
Our Government trusts rivets more then law abiding gun owners.
I couldn't resist it any longer and I caved and ordered one. It's a steal at the price. I don't have a 22 at the moment and I have nearly a whole case of minimags that need to be used up. Now I just need to find some scope rings...
Nice. You may want to get some oil for the stock. They don't seem to have any finish on them. Otherwise beautiful gun blueing is excellent

Mine does the same thing. It seems like these rifles has a tight chamber and weak extractor. CCI ammo has more wax on it, and the wax eventually build up in the chamber and causes the spent brass to stick.
Use copper plated (preferably Federal) and you won't have any issues. Mine is very accurate with cheap bulk Federal and AE.
