I have the model 30 and I had my share of feed problems. I recently bought a S & W M & P 15-22 and they recommended Winchester M-22 ammo. It is 40g with a copper plated bullet. I took both rifles to the range and when I finished with the S & W I decided to fire off a few rounds of M-22 with the model 30. I couldn't believe it. 45 rounds and not a single jam. 90 rounds and still going strong. It looks like the model 30 likes the copper jacketed rounds. I just thought I would pass it along to you. Now if I could only find some more M-22 rounds I could really enjoy a day at the range.
