SR22 at the range

I shot my SR22 Saturday and loved it. I had seven guns to shoot so only shot 200 rounds but it ate everything I fed it and not a single problem.

Matter of fact every gun shot great and I only had one stovepipe on a Walther PP in .22LR.

Nice 303! I shot 200 rounds through mine right when I picked it up at the LGS/Range. Picked it up from the cash register and walked right into the range. FUN!

My SR22 keeps getting better.I went to the range for the first time in a few months and dialed in my sights. Now that I am used to the pistol, I shot a clothes pin at 15 yards. It may have been luck, it may not be an impressive shot at that distance to the serious shooters, but I was proud and the other shooters were interested in what pistol I was causing afterwards.

Great to hear.
I enjoy mine also! It's one of those pistols that the word"Fun" keeps being used to describe it. Just curious, what ammo are you using? Mine likes the Federal bulk.

Mostly Federal bulk. In the past it eats anything I put through it.

I use Federal Champion JHP bulk ammo as well. I tried CCI Minimags and that fed through the gun as well.

Range report on SR22 today shot 200 rounds with an o-ring installed on the recoil spring. No issues whatsoever.....no more ping everytime the slide cycles. Recoil seems smoother too. Shot up to 15 yards, pretty accurate about 1/2" groupings not too bad for a short barreled 22 semi-auto. I tried it at 25 yards and it was all over the place. It was F U N! Can't complain.

Well, I must've been next to you cause I went to my local gun range saturday and shot a box of Federal 550 bulk with no problems...to date I've put 1605 rds thru my SR22-CT. This gun has put every round downrange and I have been absolutely thrilled by it's performance...
