I have a fairly new Ruger SR22 and have only put a few hundred rounds through it. Maybe 6 or 7 hundred. The other day I shot it and it would shoot one round then click on the next pull of the trigger. Pulled back the slide and chamber was empty. Let the slide go, pull trigger, bang. Pull trigger again, click. Repeat.
Both mags I have do the same. All ammo I have does the same but with the higher velocity stuff it is not as frequent. If you load the mags with only five rounds of high velocity it may only fail to load one of the five.
It seems as though the slide is just not coming back far enough to pick up the next round. The next round is always in place (untouched) as though the bolt never touched it or moved it forward at all. It will always chamber the round with no problem when you let the slide go.
Any ideas how I can resolve this problem? The first time or two I shot this pistol it did not do this.
