@KenMileyJr 9 жыл бұрын

PJ MasterDiddy Where do you get your info? There was a shortage because the .22LR is the most widely used caliber in the country and after Sandy Hook people panicked and started cleaning out ALL the ammo. Since more people use .22 and it's relatively inexpensive it sold out faster and has stayed sold out since. Ammunition companies have gone on record saying that they've been producing .22LR 3 shifts per day since. It will come back when people feel like they've horded enough!

AwesomeFinish where are yo getting your info from?? The same factory that makes .22 also makes other caliber ammo. So why continually retool the factory to produce the least profitable ammo when you can produce something that is 3 to 4 times more profitable? So manufacturing is down and demand is up.

I've had this gun for almost a year. Great little 22. Feels nice in the hands and its fun to shoot. As far as the failure to feed issues. Mine started doing that a lot. Thought it was a mag issue at first. Then tried different ammo. Turns out its finicky when it gets dirty. I use this gun a lot for target practice. I find that if I clean it (I use break free CLP and a brass brush) every 200 to 400 rounds it solves the FTF issue.

Traded my Walther p22 away yesterday- had it two weeks, lost $150 on the trade. Got it for xmas from my wife. Sorriest pistol I ever owned. Got a Ruger SR22 in trade. Instantly all my ftf fte, ftc problems went away. Talked to Walther they told me to only use CCI mini mag. I was, but also wanted to use other ammo. Would not shoot other HI-Vel ammo, and most definitely no non-premium ammo. They said it was in the manual. It's not, only to use 22LR. If it takes a specific cartridge it should be posted on the box. Internet is full of videos on how to modify the Walther to make it work . I call BS on the Walther. I got the gun to shoot, not have to repair it new out of the box, or send it in new for warranty, or not be able to use it if I can't find special ammo.. Stay away from the Walthers- get a Ruger.

I got a little Bersa Thunder 22 after liking my .380 so much. It's pretty fun to plink with at the range and cost me like 5-10 cents/round. The cost of a day at the range brought me from $80/day (9mm/380/40) to about $20 with 22LR, so the wife is happy about that. It's funny about ammo though. It likes CCI but a lot of others fail to eject.

The wife bought a SR22 for her first gun. We've put several different type of ammo through it with reasonable results. The thunderbolt ammo I've had for years seemed to be the worst, but hey you get to teach clearing a malfunction. Other ammo worked fine, CCI blazer, mini mags solid, fed bulk .36gr HP, CCI standard velocity worked fine too. The high velocity ammo and .40gr bullet weights is the key to reliability. HVHPs or .40Gr standard V. The thunderbolts being old (10+yrs) are not reliable in a 10/22 so fresh ones may work better, I'm just not going to pay the price for junk ammo when you can get crappy ammo for the same price.

You may not see this but I do have one of these that I use for the classes that I teach. After about 15,000 rounds I started having several misfire issues. I replaced the recoil spring rod with a steel one. That started to reduce the misfires. I also found that with my big hands, I switched to the big floor plate so that my pinky is underneath the mag. If found that without moving to that, there is enough play in the magazine to cause downward pressure if I did not out my finger underneath. The only other thing I had a problem with is that you need to use solvent to spray down through the firing pin to keep it clean. The disassembly of the firing pin block was more than I want to do every cleaning. The very last issue I found with mine is that it does not like a very tight crip on the gun. With those issues resolved and using 1280 fps rounds, I am now around 35,000 rounds through that gun.

I bought some tracer 22 rounds a few years back ~DON'T~ on the 3rd shot from my beat up old revolver it sounded kinda funny, nothing funny about the 4th shot, fire and lead came out everywhere except to end of the barrel. The 3rd round had stuck in the tube when I fired. Gives a whole new meaning to the words " gun shy". Had a tough time getting those rounds out and my old revolver clean up. Really lucky it was just 22 ammo and a strong old pistol.

Awesome video and review as always. I just reviewed the SR22 in my video as well and I love this gun. It is a ton of fun to shoot and will take pretty much any type of ammo. Some types of ammo work better than others, but overall I haven't had any real (non-ammo related) problems with the gun.

I recently got into shooting 22 because shooting 45acp is too expensive. Its so fun I keep buying more new 22 handguns! I been using CCI 40 grain.

Bought my wife an SR22 for her birthday a couple years ago. She came with a S&W Lady Smith .38 and with age she decided she didn't like the .38. Sadly her health took a dive and she passed away this past February. I had read quite a bit about the SR22 before the purchase and others had commented to feed only "quality" ammunition for reliable operation. I've never fed it other than Remington Golden Bullets and have never had a single problem. I enjoyed watching you figure out the problem, even if I did talk gruffly to the television. (I do that these days) I really enjoy shooting Barbie's SR22. I'm wondering now why I left in the box for two years, waiting for her I guess. I hope you do decide to keep that one and I hope to see more videos on it.

Picked up one last weekend. Shot low but the sights adjusted easily. On the money windage wise. 200 rounds of Thunderbolt and 100 rounds of CCI in the first day. No failures. Feels great in my hand. Bought in large part due to Hickoks review. Thanks!

While the 22 lr would not be my first choice as a defensive weapon, I myself would not want to get hit with one of these little bullets. Anyone that thinks that the 22 lr round is useless as a defensive cartridge should take a look at the President Reagan shooting and what the shooter was able to do with just a little 22 revolver.

Derick Rogers Pretty much muzzle velocity (V) and the mass of the bullet in grams (m) by this formula W=m×V2 divided by 2. You get the energy of the bullet in joules.

I have heard for years and I don't really know how true it is, but the .22 caliber bullet is a surgeons nightmare. I'm assuming it bouncing off bones or organs internally. I would not want to find out myself.

I know this is an old video but this gun is still awesome for a .22LR. I've seen a lot of people having feeding and ejection problems and the company Tandemkross makes a replacement spring guide rod which is made out metal for $30 and should make it more consistent. Also the feed ramp is not chamfered as much as it should be which makes it catch when trying to chamber a round.

@snickelfritz4179 5 жыл бұрын

If I had to describe this pistol in one word it would be “fun”. The ergonomics on this pistol is off the charts. It fit both our hands like a glove. We took several of our own guns to the range yesterday including an older Ruger MKll 22/45. I decided to rent a Ruger SR 22. The trigger on the SR -22 was a good one as you have a small amount of take up and a nice predictable break. My older Ruger has a mushy trigger that makes it hard to tell when it’ll break

When I first bought my RS22 I had a lot of FTFeed incidents. I discovered than 3 of the five magazines I bought from Ruger has assembly or manufacturing problems -- burrs on the feed lips, loose or tight gaps, even two with the follower button installed upside down! The dealer replaced all three and after a thousand rounds I can truthfully say I haven't had another problem with the gun. Accurate, reliable and. inexpensive...nice combination

the gun is reliable, unfortunately a lot of .22 ammo out there isn't I've had a lot of problems with federal bulk rounds anyone who's depending on it for self defense should load with CCI hollowpoints

@SkyWriter25 8 жыл бұрын

+don carson Same experience here. That Federal 325 yellow box is the only ammo mine ever had problems with. If the gun was super clean (like fresh out of the ultrasonic cleaner clean) it helped. It seems like that Federal round is a bit under powered and is prone to failure to fire. With CCI, or just about any other brand, it runs fine.

Just picked up the last one at Sportsmans Warehouse today. $299. Great gun. Nice trigger. Dropped 100 rounds of CCI thru her. No issues. It has a feel about like a Taurus 111 G2 8mm. Nice length grip. Not like a Glock 23 with the stubby grip. Not as heavy as a Walther P22. Thanks Hickok! As always enjoyable video and review.
