winchester model 255-22magnum?s
« on: December 06, 2005, 10:51:41 AM »
I bought a win.255 22magnum lever action tube fed rifle.it holds 11 in the magazine tube. the problem im having is it fails to fire sometimes.it always has the firing pin mark on the rim of the casing,ive tryed federal 5ogr, hps,CCi 40 gr, ammo.im thinking the firing pin is giving out.the firing pin marks appear to be kinda slanted to the side?im thinking the firing pin is a floating type or its loose in the action.i dont know/want to take it apart,not be able to pput it back together.ive cleaned it the best i could without taking it apart.are parts still a available?i  will try other brands of ammo at a later date when i get them.any info/history or other info is appreciatted.thanks
