1/3/08 Xmas present to myself. From day-1 I thought I'd run 500-1000 through the gun before passing judgment. In the first 300 rounds of Winchester Xpert 22 hollow points, about 2 rounds per mag. would jam or misfire. Not great in the category of purchase confirmation. But, based on my other autoloaders, I know I can't just pick up any old box of Chinese surplus ammo and expect results. I watched very closely as my wife fired it. Some empties eject a foot or so back, others don't eject at all but lay in the magazine to be jammed as the slide comes forward. I also notice some new rounds didn't clear the sharply angled ramp, possibly because the slide wasn't blown back far enough. Overall, it should have shipped with an ammo recommendation - like use only 93 octane ammo.
