    Hi from down near the border. I came here looking for help with my Buckmark and failure to eject. I've had a few Brownings and all of the fine firearms. I was shocked when I started having problems with a basically new gun. Less than 300 rounds and it started failing to eject completely. I'm using Winchester bulk ammo.

    Welcome to the Browning Owners Forum Roger !!

    I own a Browning Buckmark and found it, like other .22 semi-auto pistols, to be sensitive in what it's fed.

    Winchester Bulk is know to be a little dirty ( unburnt powder )...so your Buckmark could just be fouled. ( I myself clean it after each range session...)

    I would buy a few different boxes of .22 ammo ( I know, easier said than done ) and see if that doesn't do the trick...CCI, Remington, etc...

    Let us know how you make out...

    Hi Shooter13,
    I cleaned the Buckmark and took it back out with 4 different kinds of .22s. It works great with anything but Winchester ammo. I never noticed such a difference with other .22s but it sure makes a difference with the Buckmark. But it does shoot where you point it! I got that lucite front sight and it's so easy on my aging eyes. Amazing! Thanks for the help.
