I was sighting in my sons 10/22 and during this process I had 3-4 casings split or blow out right below where they were struck with the firing pin. This is a 10/22 that I sent off to CPC for bolt work, trigger work and chamber work. I have another rifle I sent to him that has never done this. This guy is one of the best in the country as far as 10/22’s go but I’m starting to wonder if something is not right between the bolt and chamber. It’s hard for me to believe it’s the ammo. It was Winchester brand in the red plastic container. I’ve shot these for years and never had this happen. The bullets may be a few years old at most. I am posting some pics so you can get a better idea as to what is happening. Besides these hiccups the gun ran great and shot really good.
