is there a Stoeger .22 LR s/n data base?

thanks for that info, i never heard the chamber being too tight , only that their ammo was a tad hotter , i have easy 1000 rds in somewhere around 5 years through it and it has never malfunctioned to the point it irritated me which we all been there with one fire arm or another , it really has bee a pleasure and a fun gun

like i said though i run CCI mini mags through it because i know it likes it , i believe allot of people buy a brick of Federal and think because it goes bang in a Model 60 its great ammo , mini mags for some reason is usually the answer to most finiky .22 LR problem child

ive had extremely low number of failure to eject , most malfunctions are usually failure to feed , i attributed this to possible a tired mag spring being lazy to get the round up in time , but even then its not a inordinate amount

i will post a pic , you can see the ole girl has seen some play and problem childs generally do not get worn like this because they do not get much play

If your failure to feed issue is of the "nose up" variety--either loaded stovepipe or the nose caught on the top, rear of the chamber--adjusting the mag's front feed lips to be a little tighter ought to fix it. Pretty successful remedy for Ermas that misbehave in that way...

When Mini-Mags are hard to find, Remington Thunderbolts will quite often also help. Same projectile weight, similar muzzle velocity...
