    10-22 jams -got me stumped

    I consider myself as having a pretty good knowledge of 10/22 rifles and getting them to work correctly
    My new build is playing up at 1st starting to stovepipe the odd time once a bit dirty 100 rounds or so (since last cleaning)
    I was pretty sure it was a bad extractor on the oem bolt
    So I grabbed a volquartsen Extractor to replace the oem
    I also got the kidd charging handle not that I thought that would help with fiction I just wanted one

    Installed the lighter of the 3 springs (got no interest in running high Velocity its a target rifle so gets run purely on match ammo)

    This seemed to fix it for awhile but now it back to its old tricks
    And worse than ever (its once or twice a mag now) and not only that its also double feeding


    Im thinking mag issue (only have one mag handy) should probably go and buy another one

    I’ll probably get a kidd bolt at some stage when funds allow as the rifle has a kidd trigger
    From memory (back when I had a factory kidd rifle) the bolt is a slightly different profile at the rear to help with function

    However it should be working correctly as is
    But its got me stumped

    Any ideas
