RE: Jennings J-22 opinions
Ok, day three, she' s shot it the last two days, getting almost 1000rnds through it already, it' s jammed maybe 5-7 times (so 99.3-99.5% reliable function), after about 200rnds mostly on off sounding rounds (probably the ammo, see below), the guy who picked it up for me ran about 500rnds before I got ahold of it, so 700rnds before failure isn' t bad. Additionally, this was with cheap ammunition, with which I usually experience 1-5% jam or misfire with these.
ALSO, I guess I never specified, but it' s not supposed to be a personal protection arm for her, just a plinker and probably a coon hunting gun, to be used when the Jack russels have one under a foundation with so many holes out everyone needs a gun, or when a rifle wouldn' t fit the situation. I found it to be pretty accurate, 15ft gave a 2.5" 7shot-group (1.20" without one extreme), with three shots making one ragged hole, not bad for one unsupported hand, a sub 2" bbl, bad ammo, and a 4" sight radius.
She likes it, so I guess it' s going to hang around.
