So for the second time in only 20 rounds now the same thing has happened.

Using my 10/22 I am shooting at the range when one round blows up in the chamber and the whole primer end blows off and the rest of the cartridge is jambed in the chamber. At a quick glance down the bore everything looks ok so the first time I tried to reload and at that time I noticed the remaining brass.

Has anyone experienced this?

I will get pics tomorrow as the round is still in the barrel as I had to go to work.

Just want to hear opinions or ideas? I have used the federal bulk before and really liked it so I thought I would give this stuff a try.
 
exactly what barrel does your 10/22 have? match chambers and cci ammo apparently dont mix. Ive shot alot of 500 rd bricks of blazer thru several .22s and have never had this happen but I havent opened any of my 525 rd packs yet.
 
I remember Dr. Lecter mentioning Dlask's chambers are too tight for cci ammo, hopefully he can chime in here but IIRC Federal, AE, and Winchester are all good to go. NEA uses a match chamber too, did you try the Blazers in a stock 10/22 barrel?
 
From my own experience, Blazers do not work in most Dlask barrels. Mine kept getting FTE/FTF almost every other shot, some times it would work for a couple or not at all. The good Dr told me that continued use of Blazers in their barrels would just ruin them, so stop it now if you are .. lol :D

Blazers do work in my OEM SR22 Barrel with no problems.
 
Glad I just stumbled on this thread as I was just about to buy a Dlask barrel and have 6k rounds of Blazer sitting here.

Does anybody know if it matters whether it's a Sporter or Bentz chamber - Dlask makes both.
 
i had a thread on it, but cant find it. heres the blown off heads.

i was shooting left handed, with my right hand under the magazine when this one let go. its too bad, because that blazer gave me some awesome groups with my dlask barrel.

They will cut a sporter chamber for a very reasonable price. Joe quoted me 40 bucks for sporter chamber and custom length. Ive got over 7000 rds of Blazer so its vital that my new 10/22 project runs well on it.
 
As said a million times before,
do not use CCI ammo in Dlask barrels.

I cannot comment on the NEA barrels,
but if some ammo (any ammo) gives you problems in both,
then it would be wise to stop using that ammo.

You know what the doctor sez,
watch for what kind of food makes you feel sick,
and stop eating that kind of stuf.

Or if it hurts when you walk, then don't walk, ffs.

Or if your car is making that awful noise when
you are taking left turns, you don't really have to be a mechanic
to realize you have to stop taking left fukken turns, man.
It's that simple. *insert smileys here*



Anyway, without joking, stop using CCI ammo in Dlask barrels.
They are not chambered for CCI ammo.

Given the many combinations of bullet type and lenght in CCI ammo,
it is my calculated guess that Dlask will not chamber for
general CCI ammo soon.

CCI company pulled the Blazer from their website.
If that means what I think it means, I'm ready to
get drunk to celebrate.

For those of you with stashes of Balzers, don't buy Dlask barrels.
There are tons of other barrels out there, go get some.
Also, be aware that along the years, Blazer was sold in
quite a few varieties, as shape of bullet and grain.
Even today, CCI sells, among other things, 2 varieties of Mini-Mags:
the Mini Mag HV (round nose, 40gr) and
the Mini Mag HP (hollow point, 36gr).
They chamber different, they fly different, they group different.
But neither works in Dlask barrels.



I posted about this in the past:
If the barrel is of the new breed (May 2011 and up)
(eg it is engraved "D.A.C. X-TREME 22LR")
it will NEVER cycle CCI ammo (Blazers, Stingers, Velocitors, etc).
Yes, the chambers are tight.
These barrels, after the break in, if the rest of the gun is ok,
will generally shoot anything but CCI.

But if you have to shoot CCI ammo,
you may try the sporter variety (engraved "D.A.C. SPORTER 22LR"),
but be aware that the sporter, as the name sez, is NOT a target barrel.
But the Dlask SPORTER will NOT chamber Stinger and Velocitor.
Also, do not confuse the Dlask SPORTER chamber
with the Ruger SPORTING chamber, they are different.
Ruger's SPORTING chamber is a large hole like a counterbore
at the end of the barrel that will chamber
almost anything (except for 9mm).


If the barrel is of the very first batches (Oct 2009 - June 2010)
(engraved "DLASK ARMS CORP 22LR"),
then you may be lucky and after breaking it in,
maybe it will cycle Blasers (but not Velocitors nor Stingers).
Also, in those old barrels, high velocity shoots best
(not slow-velocity/standard-velocity/target, nor hyper velocity,
but HIGH VELOCITY).

Barrels bought between June 2010 and may 2011
will generally not cycle CCI (not even Blazer), but
some will cycle target ammo and maybe show accurate results.
Bulk ammo (Win/Fed) will work the best.
 
I have a Dlask 12.5" sporter barrel for my 10/22 Thompson build. Haven't shot it yet but tried Blazer in the chamber. Drops right in and will fall out when inverted. Hope they cycle ok, have about 13 k for plinking.
 
Thanks for all the help.

Like Dr. Lector said if it doesn't work stop using it. I only went through 10-20 rounds after the second failure I stopped.

I will go beck to the federals that I like. And I will save the blazers for my remington.

Thanks again
