It stovepipes every 4-5 rounds. I have done the following to the gun.

- Volquartsen extractor
- Replaced ejector with factory new one
- Tried with and without the TI Red Bolt Buffer

I shot it with Federal and Winchester - just regular high velocity .22lr. I've already cleaned the receiver and bolt after every session, slightly lube the ejector and recoil spring before each session. Any other suggestions on what to try? :runaway:

-try a factory 10 round rotary mag if you haven't yet
-check the bolt for burrs in the extractor groove area
-check that the extractor notch in the rear face of the barrel is clean, and does not cause the extractor to deflect when closing the bolt (on an empty chamber).
-polish the action and radius the bolt at least a bit
-Is the bolt release handle factory on the SR-22? If not, it looks pretty big, it might be deflecting the casing back into the chamber.
 
My guess is its the mag! Please please try the factory mag. If it still has issues, try cci.
I bet 90% of jams go away with this combo. If it doesnt. Somethings up with the internals.
The only other question is the barrel stock? How tight is it screwed down.
Maybe the barrel is too far into the receiver not giving the bolt time to line up the bullet to the barrel.
I really liked the 715t because it has a feed ramp. I wonder why the 10/22 doent have it.
I hope you get shooting again.
When I had issues with my 10/22. Everyone told me to use cci and stock mag. So just passing it on.
Only other thought is to polish/clean the guide rod.
