    Having the same issue with mine. I've never had a gun lead like this, ever. Last test I did I used Min Mag, Golden Bullets and Blazer, and it started to lead up again. There's definitely a barrel spec issue. Sig is supposed to be emailing me a return label today. It will be interesting to see what they have to say/do about it.

    I think I know what is a problem. In my new p322 i found that not diameter of barrel is an issue, but feeding bullet to chamber. When a bullet i moved to chamber it is scratched by groove between chamber rim and feeding notch . Scratching bullet causes two things : leaves free amount of lead in entry to barrel that could be pushed further by second bullet . Scratched bullet in one side allow the gas to penetrate between the bullet and barrel , causing lead heating and melting. It is quite simple to check - load bullet to chamber and remove it. When there are scratches then is the case. In my Ruger SR22 there is now one scratch - it has no notch . I do a simple handwork with file - I've saw a little bit more entry to chamber - now bullets are not scratched .

    I bought mine in early April when they had just come out and have about 2500+ rounds through mine without much issue. I had some ammo issues with Remington golden bullets and some light primer strikes on some Remington target rounds, but no issues at all with any CCI brand ammo. At 7 yards, I can shoot 1.5 inch groups consistently using a Romeo Zero red dot. It shoots better than my unsteady hands can hold. I clean it every trip to the range and shoot about 150-200 rounds per session. I am more than happy with mine.

    Just bought one Going to the range in a hour will find out ?? That Winchester ammo with light primer strikes is just junk IMO I had some years ago and had the same issues in a M&p 15/22 Its junk I won’t buy it ever again
    Ill keep you posted
    The guy that said drop a bullet in the chamber look for scratches may be on to something.
    I personally run a ripcord thru all my 22 pistols at 100 rds when the barrel is hot so I don’t need to use solvents in my house because they stink / caustic, seems to help with accuracy also , model 41/victory/ M3 -22/45 I recommend that to all my buddies and they say they keep better groups??
    Update
    First my gun was produced in July 2022
    Ran 200 rds of CCI target 40 grain a lot of light primer strikes too many IMO no barrel fowling ,
    Ran 150 rds of Federal auto match no light primer strikes no fowling
    Ran 100 rds CCI standard velocity with a sparrow suppressor no light primer strikes, no fowling
    Ran 50 rds of CCI blazer a few light primer strikes no fowling and they where all over the place with accuracy . This gun is not that accurate but fun ! Don’t think about putting 20 rds in the mag it causes problems, there speed loader only lets you put 18 in the mag .
    My thoughts are Sig knew they had a problem with there barrels and fixed it
    They screwed everyone that bought the guns with bad barrels. I am playing the lottery tonight 😊

  • @deucedeuce1572
    @deucedeuce1572 2 года назад +3

    It's amazing how shiny and smooth the barrels/bores are on the P322, but they still get bad lead fowling. I wonder what the issue is. I hope they tell us what it is and fix it (without denying it and telling everyone there's nothing wrong). You can manually push a bullet through the barrel and then measure it to see if it's over/under sized. I would guess they're either oversized or the barrel is stretching too much, but only because I've never seen a barrel get excessive lead fowling from an undersized barrel and/or oversized ammo. I've seen many reloads with oversized lead rounds (from soft lead to hard cast) and have never seen it cause excessive lead fowling.

    Well now this was a interesting video and I own a sig Sauer p322, I have fired probably a little over 1000 rounds through it of all different kinds of bulk ammo and have had no excessive leading problems with my barrel. I also have a Taurus TX 22 competition and it is a great 22 semi-auto and it's hard for me to decide which one I like the best. I would say that the Taurus tx22 competition has a slightly better trigger than the sig Sauer p322.

    How many rounds fired until you noticed leading/accuracy issues? Took my new P322 to range this morning and fired 300 rounds of CCI standard velocity ammo just to see if mine had the leading issue. CCI standard vel. is just lead (no plating) and I got great accuracy and no detectable lead in barrel. Tools&Targets got his to lead after like 80 rounds.

  • @NOYFB411

    Worst part of this leading issue is dealing with Sig customer service. I had to send mine in twice. Not sure if they fixed it second time but I was dealing service rep arguing with me about the problems I was having. I said rounds started to keyhole and he said they weren't and that sometimes 22 rds make bigger holes in paper depending. I told him I retrieved the target and pushed the paper back together from behind and could see the outline of the bullet hitting sideways. He still argued with me. There were other issues where he had similar arguments. I was so mad after getting off the phone. I got the gun back and sent it for auction. Gun was made in Oct 2023 and has had barrel replaced twice. Sig sux.

    So strange you are having problems.
    I took my P322 to the range Friday and shot 140 rounds without one issue.
    I have seen every video out there on this gun, and I was sure I too would have problems.
    I cleaned the gun a few days before I hit the range, and I used the mag loader to push down the follower only far enough to get a round in to make sure non tilted nose down.
    I also used good ammo, as I have around 7K rounds of Federal American Eagle 40 grain lead nose from 2008 or so when it was cheap, and I also recently picked up 800 of CCI Standard Velocity 40 grain lead nose.
    Both ammo ran great, and I was happy I had no issues.
    I hear the main issues is the ammo tilting down in the mags, and cheap dirty ammo.
    This gun likes the good stuff, pretty much like my Smith and Wesson AR15-22 does.
    I was told long ago to stick with the two types I used above.

    I took mine to the range and right out of the box put 400 rounds through it without issue although about 3/4 through I noticed I was key holing which wasn't even something I knew what it was it was just like instead of holes in my targets I had little lines, apparently from the bullet turning. Got it home want to clean it and the brass weight of my bores snake would not fall through the barrel. I literally had to pull it out with pliers. Then when cleaning it with a brush and cleaning rod the cleaning rod got stuck in the end. I didn't look at it but I remember thinking it just seemed too tight. So I assume the fear is it gets too filled with lead, a round gets stuck, and then the round after that is a catastrophic failure, right?

      Most .22s just need the carbon wiped out.
      Shouldn't be any real leading issues unless there is an issue with the ammo.

    I bought the P322 a month ago and immediately ran 80 rounds through it with no leading or FtFs. I did however notice when I got home the rear sight had fallen off and was lost , WTF Sig? They are sending a replacement but still left a bad taste in my mouth since the gun was new. Not sure I'll ever buy another Sig after the first and only Sig I ever bought had an issue first day.

    • @martylucas8557
      @martylucas8557 Год назад

      So your gun ran flawlessly when you immediately took it to the range. However, your rear sight fell off…. Yet Sig took care of you and made it right and now you don’t want to get another Sig or do business with them. Really?? The way I judge a product is holistically. I take into account not only performance, but how I’m treated when it’s not performing. If I had a good customer service experience, where they took care of me, especially with no questions asked, I will almost always be a return customer.
      Are you really thinking this through?

My TX 22 shoots great but the rear sight is junk so are the slides on these guns. Mine will break sooner or later. Makes you wonder how they ever get released to the public.

    For lead removal get a "Chore Boy" solid copper cleaning pad, I can only find them on Amazon, grocery and other box store only carry copper plated steel pads...DO NOT USE THESE. Unwind the Chore Boy so you have a single strand of copper, wrap that around your cleaning brush and have at it. You'll find out how much and how tight a wind you need from the stiffness of running the brush back and forth through the barrel. Are these P322's made by Sig or Umarex?

      You are right. It “could” be, but it’s not. They have made many flawless models, then others barrels start leading? The specs on their machining or quality control,,,,, well I guess both are off.

      i have the tx22 and the 502. that 502 has some serious problems. i got a reed dot sight and tried to zero it in. but cant even get one magazine without several failures. i think there is something going on with the barrel or slide. i have about 800 plus rounds through it with all kinds of issues. I cleaned it every 250 - 280 rounds and still. i absolutely want to love the 502 because when it works it feels good especially comped. solid weight to it and it super comfy for my tiny hands. it shoots far up left. seriously wtf. something going on

  • @bjharada
    @bjharada 2 года назад

    I bought my 322 the day after they were introduced. I finally got out to my shooting spot and tried to zero it. It seemed to shoot alright for the zeroing stage. Then I put another few magazines thru it, and I also started to get the sideways keyholing on paper and all of a sudden I couldn't even hit a 10" target at 10 yds.. Took the gun home and started to clean it, and noticed there was quite a bit of lead buildup, just like your tests. I decided to try different ammo, but here in arizona the fire restrictions came up so I haven't been able to test with different ammo. It looks like I need to send this back to sig. What email address or phone number are you using to contact Sig? Do you know if they will send me a new barrel if I send them mine? TIA Bob

    I wanted to love the P322, but I'm one of the unfortunate owners plagued by light primer strikes. It happens with various magazines and even single loading, so not my loading or the magazine. I've tried the spacer mod under the hammer spring and that helped, but the gun is still unreliable. Ammo used: Federal Auto Match, CCI Mini-Mag and Eley Match EPS.

      So the question is, what is up with these P322 barrels that people are getting lead build up ??? Is it their ammo ??? I find it hard to believe that its ONLY a P322 barrel issue because there are DOZENS of 22LR barrels that never have a leading issue .. EVER.
