22 tcm 9r update

Well, I love shootong the .22tcm9r but after a few outings, I can't recommend it. After all I have done in an attempt to get it to feed better, I still get FTE's(failure to eject). The rounds are locking in the chamber. After examining closely after round extraction, it appears unburnt powder may be wedging between the cartridge and walls and creating a bind. You might be able to tune this out by handloading but it's kind of disappointing to have a factory round fail repeatedly like this. I don't think I'll be investing mich more in the 22tcm9r caliber. Watch for a used barrel and guide rod kit on gunbroker if it sounds like your cup of tea.
The round did penetrate into the third jug during testing.
