Real nice, clean, tight.

Better lock up your .22LR. She'll eat it all up.

Those gals can be a problem. I brought home a nice little cutie blonde Swedish Mauser one time and put her in my safe. Next day I went to get her out and the door to the safe was standing wide open. She had ran off with one of my black boys, an AR. She picked the one that had the biggest banana clip and left town with him. I think they went to Mexico and joined a drug cartel. So be careful putting strange little cuties in your safe with the big boys. [;)]

Don't know why the cell phone does that once in awhile

Last year I bought a brick of Eley Pistol Match. It won't reliably fire in my Ruger MKII, I was hoping this Smith would chew it up.

Nope. Cannot get them in the chambers.

So, I ran some golden bullet thru it. Even with these it shot really well, surpassing groups I shoot with my K38.

A lot of the K22s have tight chambers and have to be kept clean. It's a common complaint that they are prone to be sticky ejecting.

I gave my pretty 17-4 to my Daughter last year. After I see what they are bringing it makes me wonder if I really love her that much.[:D] I guess I do because she got my .38, 4" Diamondback this year.

I do have a nice pre 17,a 63 and an 18-2 though if I need to get rid of any .22 ammo.

You'll love that 17-4.

When I had live fire for my HE classes, I'd have them shoot a Ruger Mark I, by the end of the session, particularly if I used non-premium ammo, a ring of fouling would have developed at the front of the cartridge to the extent that the bolt needed a push to completely close. Could this have happened to your "orphan"?

Well, I gave it a good brushing out before I fired it. I don't think that is the problem.

This Eley stuff seems to chamber hard in everything. I actually did fire this more with some different Eley ammo yesterday, the ammo still went in kinda hard, but it was workable. They shot really well.
