i've got this 10/22 ruger that's pretty accurate little 22 but it jams about once a clip. maybe 1 out of 20 shots it doesn't cycle correctly. shoots longs. i clean it but haven't tried to disassemble and deep clean it. i really don't think this is a cleaning issue as it's done this since it was new and hasn't gotten worse. the guns probably 15 years old. it's a pain.
is this typical? got any fixes?

Could be the mags, as mentioned above. I've got a few mags that have, I'm assuming, weak springs in them, as sometimes they will feed and other times, the mag will not feed the next round, or will partially feed it.

Its common with a .22. Try using soft points instead of hollow points. Or a different manufacturer of ammo.

^^ this! Or take your magazines apart and clean and lubricate them as well. But a thorough cleaning is necessary 22's are dirty ammo

the mag is a good thought that hadn't occurred to me. the only one i've got came with the gun. it's plastic, maybe holds 10 or 12 rounds. i'll try another one and see what happens. thanks

Are you using the plinker ammo? I don't think an occasional jam is fixable, in my experience.

If it's 15 years old and never been disassembled it's WAY overdue for a deep cleaning. .22 ammo is nasty stuff. The bolt needs to come out, get cleaned and the receiver needs a goos brushing out. When it goes back together it only needs about 2 drops of oil where the bolt rides.

yes remington, just plinker rounds.
after wiley's comment that i should deep clean it, i looked at manual online to see how to disassemble it. the manual gives instructions to 'minimize' jams. pretty much what you guys have suggested...'Most malfunctions are caused by improper or damaged magazines, incorrect
ammunition, or poor maintenance.'
i'll check it out...

Look up the velocity of the ammo. Needs to be up around 1250fps or you'll experience some jams with a 10/22. If it is "standard" velocity 1100fps or less... try with some higher velocity rounds.
I had a 10/22 and it liked Federal 510 the best about 1240fps. Jammed as you described with CCI Standard velocity ammo.

You say "shoots longs". Does it jam with LR ammo? pick up some CCI LR ammo or some Federal Automatch and try it out.

I have never had a problem with mine in any standard velocity rounds.Otherwise i hate federalsand winchesters.I have never had any remington or cci fail to fire. At least 1 out of 100 or so winchesters or federals fail to fire.I have shot remington or cci religiously.Use to coon hunt and have shot 10s of 1000s of remingtons and ccis.If there not wet they fire.....Sub sonic or quite, Low velocitys however will fail to eject or jam.

mine eats stingers as fast as you can pull the trigger, could be lead build up in the chamber though.wear it out with some hoppes and a new bore brush. then it should rock.kill a many a bull frog with mine, they are fun.my 10/22 is factory standard, no different barrel. the way i go it from Ruger.i wanted but haven't to put a green mountain barrel on it, but not done that yet. Once we had Bush, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope. Now we have Obama, no Cash and no Hope.. What's next?Assad  As Always WAR EAGLE!

It's been my experience the Remington bulk pack "golden bullet" ain't so golden. The ones I have regulary fail to fire in every 22 I own, and fail to cycle my 10/22's and MK II's. I shoot Federal bulk with no problems. I shoot the Federal and Wolf match in .22 sniper matchs and have never had a problem with either. Wolf is very dirty ammo but my 10/22 eats it up.

I had a problem with a 10/22 jamming. Clean the feed ramp well.

i don't remember mine ever jamming, i bought a can looking thing with Winchester 22 hp. they get lead all over you loading the 50 round clip. every kind i have bought was dirty firing stuff. i think that is the nature of 22 rim fires.
