Well, not really. But I do hate the fact that I'm having constant failures to fire with every type of ammunition I try in it. It's a stock gun that I've had for a while, though it's been lightly used. To tell you the truth, it's never been that reliable, but now it's getting much worse - I rarely get through a 10 round magazine without at least 1-2 light strikes. Usually they'll fire when I run them through a second time. I've googled FTF issues with 10/22's and it seems to be a common problem. Usual recommendation is to start with a good barrel and chamber cleaning - done. Still not working any better.
Here are the options I'm considering. First option is the Volquartsen bolt tune up kit which consists of their firing pin and extractor and runs in the $30-ish range. The other option I'm thinking about is a complete Kidd bolt for about $100. I'm not sure which is the better route to take so if you've done either, please let me know which you chose and why.
I want to upgrade this rifle further with a better barrel and a Victor Titan stock, but first I want to be sure it goes bang when I pull the trigger!
