I recently bought a new 10/22 and the first 500 rounds or so with no mods jammed two to four times with every magazine, although it did get better as I shot it it still jammed a lot more than i would have liked. The time for mods came...polished hammer face, bolt, firing pin, and lightly polished the inside of the reciever, I also ground down the little "hook" on the bolt lock to make it auto, and I put in a Dakotan bolt buffer and Volquartsen exact edge exractor, also serviced the magazine (alot) and the gun hasn't jammed yet in well over 100 round's!

I just wanted to thank you guys for great advice, and give Dakotan/Volquartsen posative feedback for great products!

I also wanted to ask what is a good scope that is not just junk (like some I have seen) for under $75.00 for hunting/plinking.

scopes seem very popular here at RFC, but stay away from the very bottom of the line. I have a Bushnell Sportsman 4-12x40 Adjustable Objective that serves quite well for $70 from Walmart. Bushnell's Sportview may be a little better (and their Banner line even better, if you want to stretch your budget just a bit).
