st22lr problem

Recommended Posts

hi I shoot a spicke,s tactical 22lr, which shoot great, but ive noticed a problem lately with extracted cases not clearing the action, and getting stuck between the bolt face, there is no issue with extraction from the chamber, just every now and then an extracted case gets stuck and doesn't clear the action this probably happens 1 in every100 rounds, has anybody got any idea,s what is causing this, ive used the same brand of ammo since I bought it 6 years ago cheers. dave.

On a .22 rimfire, the extractor does nothing more than hold the case on the bolt face long enough for it to hit the ejector.

Most .22 ARs function perfectly well without an extractor fitted, you can take it off and verify this.

The problem you are getting is most likely from a chipped extractor tip, burr on the ejector, or.....the least probability....the empties hitting the top of the mag feed tower.

Have a look and then think about fitting a new extractor
