RE: new gun problems
Im not sure. but that sounds like a crock to me. What if hunting season was the next day after you bought the rifle, would you have to shoot it 150 times that day just to be able to hunt without threat of a misfire? I'd be calling them back.

RE: new gun problems
Don't know if its true or not but I would give them the benefit of the doubt. Ihad the same thing happen with my browning .22 buckmark. When I first got it it jammed all the time butafter about 7 boxes of ammo it has settled in and keeps going all the time without a hitch. Please post whatever your results are as I'm sure we'd all be interested in hearing about it. I was interested in the gun myself as it seems to be an affordable SBE. Take care and hope it does "break in" and start working for you as its supposed to.
