    I'm finding some sticking in my new Ruger American Rifle, glad to see it is more likely the CCI and not the Ruger being the problem. Had three out of 100 rounds fail to eject. (so far )

    Be aware that EVERY .22 rifle will favour one brand of ammo over all others- how do you find that magic brand? Buy a lot of different brands, hold the rifle in exactly the same way for every shot, and experiment! It ain't easy!

    Yep Ranger - except the pension doesn't allow too much experimentation.
    With CCI last week, shot my very first 100 with 6X's.
    Still had a couple of sticky cases that needed some bolt cycling before it came out.
    Also noted that the sticky cases usually required more effort to close the bolt.
    On the second attempt to extract, opened the bolt very slowly and you could almost 'feel' the case releasing - like dragging a shoe against rough ground.
    As the Annie doesn't normally feel like this, can only assume that the case has 'stuck' in the chamber and is literally 'dragging its heels) during the extraction movement.
    Wouldn't swap the 'old girl' (and the missus), for something else now
    Have got an old Phillipino made Stirling M1400, for the Win subs that I've been given.
    Trouble is - the trigger is crap.
    But still shot 92.2 with it a couple of months ago, with an old Jap made 2 1/2X scope, using CCI.
    So - other than the sticky extraction issue - am pretty happy with CCI target.
    Just bought @Maca49's last brick off him last week.
    So got plenty of Eley and CCI to play with.
