Re: Ruger 10/22 magazines not feeding

Thanks for the responses. Whodathunk that brand new magazines would be maladjusted?

I did toss the 50-rounder in the trash barrel at the range, but kept the stock magazines, so will take a look at your references and see if a little judicious adjusting this weekend has any effect.

Thanks again.

Ruger 10/22 magazines not feeding

OK, so I've had this 10/22 since about 1970. Until just a few months ago, it had not been fired for over thirty years. Back when I was firing it occasionally, I purchased two additional stock magazines and a 50-round extended magazine.

Now only one of the stock magazines feeds consistently. We just bought two more stock magazines last week, and only one of them feeds consistently. The rest jam at least one round out of ten, jamming the lead into the edge of the chamber.

Is this common behavior for 10/22's or am I just unlucky?
