Man, I get down voted like crazy when I say I hated my 10/22. I don't know if I had a lemon or what. But I absolutely hated my 10/22. Bought it brand new years ago. Never really shot it. Got into .22s after a friend got a 10/22. Mine was a total jam-o-matic. I used many different loads, CCI mini mags ended up being the best, but still performed poorly. The mags we're awful, I replaced the extractor. Cleaned it, polished it. Tried everything everyone recommended. My friends is more reliable, but he also dumped the value of a whole 10/22 into after market upgrades.
I had the same experience. I've owned multiple custom 10/22 platform rifles and they are all wonderful once broken in, but the one RUGGER 10/22 I owned was abysmal dogshit. Horribly unreliable, poor trigger, and not really that accurate.
Miniature is also word in french, no need to translate. I hate Provost and the rest of those freaks as much as the next guy, but you're kinda talking out of your ass on this one lol
