pigglet Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I had problems with mine when I first got it. I had more of a problem with Eley rounds than any others. It's fine now though. I was given all sorts of advice from only loading 8 rounds to bending the wings at the top of the mag. I think it just took a bit of bedding in. It's abit of sickner when you've just paid £40 for the mag though! Enjoy the best rimfire ever made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shootingman Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I get the same problem, but only with Eley rounds,any other make & I can load 10 & bolt cycles perfectly, but with Eley if I load more than 8 it won't cycle.

docholiday Posted September 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I havnt tried it without the mag being full will give it a go with 8. I use Winchester rounds, unusuall though for Sako, I have found there stuff to be spot on until this Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigglet Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Give RWS ammo a try. I found it tightened the groups up on my finfire compared to both eley and winchester. I know a few others have found the same. RWS have never jammed in the mag either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi, I had and will be buying back my finnfire tomorrow! It worked well with eley but better with Winchester subs. I had the 10 round mag and was lead to believe that it was different to the quad mag. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
