Mine has always ran well. Shoots ok out to 50 yards through a regular AR barrel. Shoots great out of my Taccom 16" dedicated 22lr barrel.

I've got one, it runs fine in a standard AR upper. I use the Taccom pressure plug in front of the buffer

That said - the Hk 416 22lr is hard to beat at $399 sale at Sportsmans so I picked one of those up last week

Seriously nice rifle - all aluminum upper and lower. And still in stock!

Thanks brothers
All good input
I saw that HK and missed the sale at 379 but can’t resist it and 399 is still a great price

Mine was hot garbage, until i swapped in a few bore buddy parts and polished the chamber. It's 100% now with any ammo.

Mine works great. I too use a buffer plug in the rear in front of the buffer to add more forward pressure to the cmmg bolt.

It works but wildly inaccurate. My bolt broke at a weld after about 1k round. I tossed it.

The Ceiner version shows up on Ebay sometimes. I have one that I bought used from a Calgunner. It works fine except with Aguila HV, doesn't want to extract reliability. Accuracy at 50 yards is fine enough for plinking out of a 1/7 twist.

I wasted a lot of ammo with those until I bought the real .22LR barrel. I used old Ceiner conversion bolts. I replaced the head and now I hit stuff well.

I'm OCD about keeping my rifle's fastidiously clean.

I didn't want to foul up my 5.56 barreled upper nor plug the gas tube when I installed the CMMG 22lr conversion kit, but I wanted to use my real AR lower, so I just bought another low cost upper and installed the CMMG conversion kit in that...a dedicated 22lr upper that I can swap on the lower and which i didn't care about gunking up. You'll always have more cleaning to do after shooting .22lr.

I also might add that I could have probably bought a dedicated AR 22 for nearly the price of the upper, but I like the versatility of the AR platform as I can also shoot 9mm using the same lower by swapping a 9mm upper and a 9mm magazine well adapter and a few other parts. The AR 15/M4 is a perfect multi-use platform and a space saver if you are short on safe storage for dedicated rifles.
