Zastava MP22

I’ve had a Remington model 5 for years. It’s the same as the Zastava Z5. Is that the same as the m22?
I’ve had extraction issues as well. I’ve found that Remington ammo will shoot all day. No issues. I can hit gophers well past 150 yards with that ammo. But federal or Winchester will get stuck in less that 10 shots.

Sounds like my buddy's gun.
I wonder if the chamber can be reamed out a bit? Possibly too tight?
 
It may be the chamber. Mine is not extracting any unfired shells with a througly clean chamber/bolt/action/barrel. Tried probably 15 kinds of different ammo. It does however extract each fired shell without problems. I've been offered to send it back but because it's so accurate I don't want anybody else to "screw" with it without me knowning what has been done to it.

I was told it’s the left extractor that fails to let go, and if in very gradually files the edge of it down, the extraction issues will be solved. Can anyone confirm this please before I take a file to mine?.

Yes, if it's stuck it can impede function for sure.
I've had a Z5 22mag for a few years now, probably the nicest rifle Zaztava makes.
M70 is a good one too but a bit rough.
M85 is terrible...lol.
 
These are great rifles , I've just brought a companion zasatava in 22wmr for my Remington model 5 in 22lr and I must have lucked out as no issues as of yet in either . Mini mags work best in the Remington 5 , and the Hornady 22wmr seem a good fit in the zastava 22mag rifle . I believe that they are the secret gems of the rimfiire world .
 
What size of groups are people getting?


First day out & I got this which shocked me considering it's BULK pack ammo! Can't wait to get out next time & print more groups.
