Re: Volquartsen Extractor for M&P15-22
Went out today and put another 300 rounds down range of the same ammo as before, and not 1 failure. Now to start stockpiling what i can find at a reasonable price since i know it cycles everything.

Re: Volquartsen Extractor for M&P15-22
Hi,
Not sure if we are just lucky? So a couple of weeks ago we shot around +-1000 rounds, all of the CCI variants that I could get my hands on. In addition I had a brick of Remington that I got for a cheap price with the intention that this would slow down my son(Well it didn't) and wanted to see - Would the "cheap stuff" run at all... Well it did, after a whole morning on the range finally a couple of jams - like three or four (only at the very end). I couldn't believe it, just thinking of the hypothetical failure rate of .22 Lr ammo alone.
a couple of notes from this exercise:
- the rifle is quite accurate as a six year old can easily and consistently hit a steel plate (smaller than an a4) with a Tasco red dot at 100m.
- The "cheap" Remington ammo would not lock and keep the bolt open once the last bullet was shot, makes sense as not high velocity ammo - but cycled through the mags fine.
- Had to really have a proper deep clean after so many rounds!
- Had to clean the Mags also.
- I have thus far not regretted buying this "pinker" whatsoever.
- a good suppressor is a good investment.
- Shooting is fun!
Happy shooting
