How many rounds through your 10/22's

I have put over 5000 through mine this year already. My dads old bone stock one has no number but, it was bought in 1987 and we shot it my whole life. Many, many bricks some of the years too. And, it saw little to no cleaning for many of those thousands of rounds. I used to shoot pennies at 100 yards, when I was a little kid, with that thing bone stock with a cheap Banner 4x. I think we all can agree, the old 10-22 is one of the best rifles ever produced.
 
I just bought a 10/22 as well and have not fired a shot out of it yet.

Now my old Marlin 60...thousands of rounds. Probably between 10k -20k. I had to put a new firing pin in as the original was getting beat down if that's any indication.

I can't go too long without a good cleaning though, the bolt slows down and fails to eject/load.
 
Don't Think!

The new ones are as good as the older ones. Had 4 over the many years and never had problems but this new one I have jams quite a bit. Failure to feed and somtimes eject.Put a Clark extractor and Vol. hammer and sear and buffer.
About 1500 rounds so far. Mostly cheap Federal bulk. Gotta try some more expensive stuff and see.
 
Got mine in 1966 for my 13 birthday must have put 5K a year since in 1980 i think it stop shooting, brought it to the smith he change the firing pin 19.00 dollars if i recall and after that 5 or 7 k a year since and still shoot it everytime i go to the range (read 25 times a year ) no more blue on it and maybe 250 nicks and scratch must have a least 15 clips ranging from 5 to 30 rounds a ball park figure must be near 250.000 rounds... JP.
 
bought my ruger a month ago 3k rounds . My marlin fack like 35k threw that thing cleand it last year for the first time that i have had it works like new!
 
I just bought mine 3 weeks ago and fired it for the first time lasst weekend.
403 rounds to be exact...and not a single jam.
Thumbs were a little sore from reloading the mags all afternoon.
I really like this little 22! :ar15:
 
Exactly 10 rounds through my 40th anniversary carbine. Bought it new. My old 10/22, which I had bought new also in 1994 had probably had close to 30-50k through it.
