The top round in the magazine almost has a straight shot into the chamber if the barrel is aligned and fixed in place properly.
You are correct sir!

I would think there is definitely something amiss with yours, get those pics. up.
It does sound that it should be going back to Ruger though, I wouldn't put up with a gun like that.

Here is what my barrel/feed ramp looks like. Took picture just before cleaning after 105 rds. The way the machining is done, the ramp has the appearance of being to the left of the breech opening. But as you can see, it is all one piece so unless there was defective machining on yours (and probably a batch) of barrels, yours should look like mine.

Could someone tell me how to post pictures from your computer without using an outside source?

When I posted the picture of my feed ramp. I went to the additional options (just below the message box) and clicked on "manage attachments". There is a browse area to upload a photo from your PC.
It appeared as a thumbnail but clicking on the thumbnail brought up the full size photo in the post.

Not a very good picture. About 100 rounds shot through. Bullet always jams on the right side.

SR22 slide not ejecting spent cartridge

Put 150 rounds of Blazer thru the weapon and it would not eject the next rount. Sent the weapon back to Ruger they said they machined the Breech ran 40 rounds of Federal thru it was ok. Tested it when it came back with American Eagle same problem at a loss here any ideas?

If it were me, I'd pick up some Federal and try it. .22 ammo is cheap. Then if it continues to have problems get on the phone with Ruger.

Try using Federal bulk ammo. It works well in most SR22p's I've seen. If that does not work, send it back.
