most 22 "jamming" problems are cause from being dirty, or from ammo that burns very dirty (equating to the dirty condition of the firearm) in my experience. so far, the CLEANEST inexpensive ammo i have shot is "Remington Cyclone". just a plain lead hollow-point 40 grain bullet. but shoot a box on look down the bore and in the action. they look almost as clean as when you got your rifle out of the case. shoot good ammo, keep your firearm clean, and you will not have problems. as long as your firearm is in good working order anyway. Remington is not in the habit of making junk, so i would think you will be happy with your new rifle. just make sure you clean it before you shoot it! there usually is a lot of storage "oil" in and on the rifle.
