I picked up one last week after reading a lot of reviews and watching a bunch of YouTube reviews. Just about everything I read and watched said it was very reliable and rated high.
So far with about 350-400 rounds through it, I have to say I am a little bummed. I have had a couple of issue: failure to feed, and a couple of failure to eject on fired rounds.
Most of the failure to feeds seem to be a magazine issue and predominantly one of the 2 mags that came with it. I even took apart and cleaned the bad performing mag.
So far I have shot Remington thunderbolt. One mag had a lot of problems. I shot a 222 box of Winchester 36 grain hollow points and had the same failure to feeds and at least 2 failure to eject. One jammed one ejection.
Remington golden 40 grain bullets seems to work best so far.
I am going to gets some gun/mag lube and see if that fixes the problem. Otherwise I may have to send it back.
