Default Remington Speedmaster 522 FTF

I just bought this used .22 and took it to the cement plant to shoot it. I actually bought it for a friend, and it shoots 3 or 4 times and jams trying to load the next round. Does it just need a good cleaning or is something worn out on this thing?

Now, I ran back to the house and got 3 other brands of .22 ammo and what it shot best with (1 FTF) was Winchester 36 gr HP. It is very accurate, but I'm trying to figure out the feeding issue.

Anyone got any suggestions other than a good thorough cleaning?

We recall the case of the Shoshone war band which showed up complete with one 30-30 rifle per man the week after Pearl Harbor, and simply wanted to have the enemy pointed out to them. "We hear there's a war going on and we want to go fight it." Jeff Cooper
