Exploring High-Capacity Magazines for the Ruger 10/22

I’ve been doing some research on high-capacity magazines for my Ruger 10/22, and I wanted to get some feedback from fellow enthusiasts on the 100 round magazine options available in the market. With so many choices out there, it can be a bit overwhelming.

Why High-Capacity?

The Ruger 10/22 is a fantastic rifle, but having a high-capacity magazine really enhances its versatility at the range or during small game hunting. I’ve seen that the 100 round magazines can really take your shooting experience to the next level, but I want to make sure I’m making the right choice.

Reliability and Performance

One of the biggest concerns I have is about the reliability of these high-capacity magazines. Are they prone to jams? Do they cycle well with different types of ammunition? I’ve read mixed reviews online, and I’m hoping to hear from others who have firsthand experience.

Legal Considerations

Another aspect to consider is the legal implications of purchasing and using a 100 round magazine. I live in [state], and I’ve been reviewing the laws regarding high-capacity magazines. It would be great if anyone could share their insights or direct me to reliable resources regarding this.

Recommendations Please!

So, if you’ve used a 100 round magazine with your Ruger 10/22, I would love to hear your thoughts! What brand do you recommend? What’s the build quality like? Any tips for maintenance or usage during shooting sessions?

I’ve had my Ruger 10/22 100 round magazine for a few months now and overall, it’s been very reliable. I’ve shot about 1000 rounds with it, and only had a couple of jams. Keeping it clean seems to help a lot.

That’s great to hear! I was worried about reliability given the capacity. Do you have any tips for maintenance?

I’ve used the Ruger 10/22 100 round mag while plinking with friends and it performed well. I had one jam, but that was probably due to me not loading it right. Just follow the loading instructions!

Exactly! Proper loading is key. I’ve also read that some users recommend using only high-quality rounds to minimize jams.

I’ve had mixed feelings. I experienced multiple feeding issues during rapid cycling. Anyone else face this?

Yes, I’ve noticed that too! I usually slow down my pace, and that works better for me. It’s a trade-off, I guess.

I love how easy it is to load. The spring tension feels just right. For anyone considering it, just be patient while loading the last few rounds; it gets a bit tough!

I agree with Paul. Slower shooting helps a lot. However, I sometimes wonder if the magazine design could be improved.

Totally! A good scrub after each day out can prevent a lot of issues.

I totally agree, Jennifer! The joy of firing a 100-round mag is unbeatable! It makes for quite the spectacle! Anyone say a good ‘ol range day?

I’ve seen so many funny memes about the 10/22 mag. It’s hilarious how we all struggle with the same quirks. Makes it a bonding experience!

Remember, folks, it’s not just about the capacity; it’s about the quality of your shooting experience too! A well-functioning magazine is essential.

I’ve had great luck with the Ruger 10/22 and the 100 round magazine. It works well with the standard model, but I had to make some adjustments with my Bull Barrel version. It was a tight fit at first!

19

That’s interesting! I wonder if manufacturers are looking into improving the fit for aftermarket mods. Any specific tweaks you made?

I have the Ruger 10/22 Takedown, and the 100 round mag fits perfectly without any adjustments. It’s a game changer at the range!
