i seemed to experience just the opposite on the ammo issue. it feed any winchester ammo i had, but didn't like the remington game loads i had also. then after the feed lip fix it feed them as well.
i find it interesting that you had an issue with the winchester ammo as any .22 i have owned the only ammo that worked everytime was the winchester brand, when other brands would not.
i too would be curious where you serial # range is too. mine is
B005xxx
as for the issue of "anything german made" i had a sig 230 that the roll pin on the frame would do the same thing and cause the slide to bind. short of welding it, nothing worked. that one went by by.
