10/22 Failure to feed with new barrel

[blupul]

i thought id post my fix sorry no pics its already done .i got a new barrel / bolt and my gun woundnt feed anything so i swaped back to factory bolt and it helped a bit but still wont feed a whole mag . tried 4 diffent kinds of ammo still wont feed . so i had a look at the cause . it turns out my new barrel had a very sharp edge where the bullet enters the chamber . i took a cone shaped dremal bit and by hand smoothed that sharp edge . it insantly chaged it from a jamomatic back to the 1022 i was used to . anyway hope this might help someone else out

what brand of barrel you put on ? I just put a Dlask 16" on mine but havent shot it yet....

Magnum Research graphite . its a very nice light barrel that shoots great . just had that one hiccup ( the razor edge into the chamber )

Does Magnum Research ship north?

P&D in Edmonton carries magnum research products for the 1022 barrels and 17hm2 kits
