I hope only 3.
Out of the box my 10/22 stove piped uncommonly. Maybe 1 in 50. It got worse to 1:10.
I got a power custom Ti extractor. It increased to 1:5.
I just installed a Volquartsen edge extractor. I am hoping it solves the issues.
My notes. The stock extractor was significantly blunted and rounded off. It looked kind of like a manufacturing defect.
The power custom Ti extractor upon removal looks like it was grabbing the case too far up the case by about half a millimeter. Using an empty casing sitting on the bolt face it was hard to hold the bolt up by the casing.
With the Volquartsen extractor installed the extractor lip sits right on the case rim and I can hold up the bolt by the casing easily (so long as I don't start getting crazy with it).
Dimensionally the powercustom Ti and Volquartsen edge extractors appear the same, except at the rear pivot point. The face of that appear perfectly parallel to the extractor claw. On the PC, it is angled slightly. I think that is accounting for the issues in holding the casing. I may try to fix the PC extractor at some point. Maybe.
Fingers crossed this fixed the issue.
Because stovepiping issues have been my only complaint with this 10/22. Most bulk ammo it shoots 2" groups at 50yds. It can shoot 1.5" groups (10 round groups) with minimags velocitors and a couple of target ammos. With a powercustom target hammer in there my group sizes have dropped about a quarter inch.
Eventually I am sure I'll get a target barrel also and a different stock (probably the walnut one).
