    M&P 22 pistol feeding problem

    I have a fairly new M&P 22 pistol that will not consistently and smoothly feed, especially when first loaded. It is a 12 round model. I am using CCI copper jacket 40 grain mini mag ammo. I think it is getting hung up on he feeding ramp even after a good cleaning. Any suggestions on how to fix would be appreciated .Thanks

    My first suggestion would be to polish the feed ramp. Use a dremmel tool with the cotton pad and some jewelers rouge.

    However, 22's are notoriously ammo finicky. Try a bunch of different loads and see if there is one that does work 100%. I would try with something like CCI standard and MiniMag to test as a baseline.

    I appreciate the tip, sounds reasonable and I'll look at different ammo too best success with CCI copper jacketed min mags. Where can you get Jewelers rouge? Thanks

    Any hardware store should have it. It's basically just a polishing compound. Good luck and welcome to the forum.
