Anyone own one? Shot one? Held one? Need some input.
I've seen them before but was interested in the more popular S&W 15-22. Have someone who's considering trading me for my XD9.
Thanks in advance.

Havne't shot the 522.
But I did recently pick up a 15-22, and I can't make it fail to feed, fire or eject, no matter what type of ammo I run through it.
Don't tell DeaconJones I said this, but I'd take a 522 or 15-22 over an "XD-anything".

The Sig 522 is a GREAT "tactical" .22. It might be the most reliable of the .22 rifles that mimic their 5.56 big brothers. That being said, I would still rather the M&P 15-22 (also very reliable-great gun)...because it has the same controls as my ARs and will be a better training asset for me.

I have one, very fun to shoot. I should have bought some additional mags when I had the chance.
If you're buying one new it probably has the updated bolt system. If it doesn't, a simple call to their customer service line will get one in the mail to you wothin minutes.
I have about 1500 rounds through it. I only had problems when the defective E clip failed. The spring broke and it wouldn't cycle properly. A friend was shooting it at the time and manually cycled and fired another 10 shots. Other than that, no cycle problems, even with subsonic rounds.
Very easy to disassemble and clean. I'm very happy with it.
ETA Ill buy two of your 25 round mags (and maybe a drum).
