I have put about 1k rounds through it so I guess its time for pics. For those interested I have had no OOB discharges and only a handful of malfunctions over the 1k rounds.This is one of the most fun rifles I have ever owned. The M&P is the one dressed in UDE.

Re: My M&P15-22

What I posted on another board:

Got about 1k rounds through it.
0 OOB's as far as I can tell
2 instances of doubling(Don't believe it was OOB) Fed 550 bulk, CCI mini-mag
1 failure to fire, good primer hit, Fed 550 Bulk
3 "nose up" jams, Fed Automatch, Fed 550 Bulk

All malfunctions were after the gun had fired at least 150rds since its last cleaning.

Put 50 rounds of Wolf Match Extra(sub-sonic) through it without issue, but the gun had a KX3 on it at the time(just for giggles). I don't remember having any malfunctions with the KX3 on that day. FWIW

I have four mags for it, no mag shows any indication of being a problem child. Malfunctions were random as far as mags go.

No, I does not run quite as well as my old 10/22's, but they had lots of action work done to them. I bought this gun for a cheap trainer, looks like it helps train on malfunctions too. If you do the math the gun has had a pretty good rate of reliability for me, acceptable as far as I am concerned for a rimfire.
