The Remington Nylon guns were really prone to that. Anyway..it might not be the ammo as much as you think. Old guns quite often become a bit worn too. 22s mostly from neglect along with the use. BTW..never dump ammo in a stream....give it to someone else. Their gun might shoot it. I had a Remington 12 that wouldn't shoot the Rem Vipers either...cleaned that devil and it goes just fine with anything
thanks I never knew 22s had a lot of wax on them! maybe I should clean'er up. i didn't actually dump it in the creek because they might go off at any time!
