They are also unreliable for use in semiautomatic weapons, because they lack consistency in the force needed to eject the casing and chamber a new round.

- giantg2 4y agoThis is not usually the case. They can be more finicky, but they can also be reliable when properly set up. Any unreliability would be improper ammo selection or a maintenance issue. For example, competition shooter rarely have this issue (High Standards, 10-22, etc).
- anonymousiam 4y agoCan you name a .22 semi-automatic handgun that doesn't jam?
- rspeele 4y agoI can't recall seeing a jam in an ISSF world cup or Olympic rapid fire pistol match. It has probably happened, but definitely not often enough to be a regular appearance. Most competitors are using Pardini SP pistols. But they are also not shooting Remington Bucket o' Bullets ammo from Wal-Mart. Premium .22 ammo like Eley, SK, or Lapua is far more consistent.
- 93po 4y agoI have a ISSC M22 that doesn't jam if I use the right ammunition for it. Maybe only 1 in 1000 rounds?
- saiya-jin 4y agoYou don't care much about that if you use ie 10-shot .22 revolver. You can't suppress it that well though. The other thing is, revolver doesn't leave empty shell around (unless you intentionally throw it away at that place when reloading). Which is good for assassins, but if in this case shell was found (not familiar with the case) then its probably not this.
