mosa Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hello all i am brand new to the concept of semi autos and was wanting some advice. It is to be used for bunnies obviously and i have heard about all the jamming issues which i suspect you get with any rifle. My options are ruger 10/22 anchutz 520/525 etc etc. if anyone can recomend one or even better sell me one that would be greatly appreciated otherwise i will look down the bolt action road again. Cheers in advance of any replies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers in advance of any replies Have a look at a magtech, i got one new for peanuts, had about 1500 rounds down it and its yet to jam. accurate as any bolt action. cleaning is a piece of urine.

MC Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I have got a 10/22 and it is brilliant fun. It is about as accurate as any other .22 and is cheap as chips. I am having a few issues with it jamming at the moment but that is down to the cases splitting on the remington rounds that I have at the moment. It loves CCI and eley though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogey Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hi Mosa I use a 10/22 and it is no problem.I have the 10 shot rotary mags and I wash them out from time to time with thinners and let them dry and give a light spray with WD40. I fire Eley subs and have never had a jam.Great rifle I think and it cost me £185 00 second hand. Hogey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mags are very easy to take apart and clean. Do a search on Youtube there is an excellent vid explaining how to do it Edited October 10, 2008 by luckytrigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
