Took out my new build with some CCI and rounds are having a hard time chambering. Almost every one of the rounds stuck in collar/barrel. Anyone help me out? I know the folks at Taccom will fix if needed just don't want to send back. Thanks

Did you try different mags?  Is the bullet running nose first into the ramp then popping up and jamming because it is bent, or is it jamming half way into the chamber because of a bad angle?

I will check the mags, it looks like they are bending a bit.

I saw your other post in AR-15 pistol/rimfire.  

I think you got some good answers there.

I had the same issue with the grey CMMG mag that came with the 22 kit, it looks similar to a BDM, but the feed "lips" distort and don't present the cartridge properly.  Tried a BDM and it was night and day.

I too am having the same problem with my Taccom 4in barrel and some ammo, mostly subsonic. At first I was having ejection issues with the bolt and sent it back to Tim he made a fix with the ejector and it worked better but still have issues with the case getting stuck in the barrel after firing. I am changing the mags to BDM w/Steel feed lips. I will check these out to see if it fixes my issue once they arrive.

Mine extracts just fine, but I'm having trouble with feeding. And I'm using the BDM mags with steel feedlips. I switched over to just using my MP15-22 mags and they fed great by hand cycling. Haven't gotten a chance to live fire it though.  

If you're using subsonic ammo only, have you tried using regular high velocity ammo? Most subsonic ammo won't cycle the action of a semi auto.
