Rugar 10/22

[artic 595]

Has anyone come across this problem?

Its a right pain in the arse, removing the mag then a quick tap to raise the bullet into possition again.

I even brought a new mag, but within 200 rounds fired IT began to jam too!!!

Its a common fault mate the one I use does the same!

Usually a good clean will sort them out.

Think its due to the wax coating on subs mostly.

This is one of the main issues i had with my 10/22, I fooking hate the mags They can be stripped and cleaned but its a bit of a faff and putting them back together is a right fiddley b*****d of a job. One of the old boys at the rifle club reccons submerging them in white sprit and tapping them every now and again. There is an allen key part of the mag box that can be adjusted dictate the stiffness on the rotary mag but if you have it too slack the plate holding the box together begins to come away and the damn thing doesn't fit in the mag housing of the rifle.

 

If we're just talking about the mag then my problem is the same as yours... you'll probably find the 'taps' will get harder and harder until the turn into more frequent 'wacks'!!

 

I know a lot of people who have a great deal of respect for this rifle and never experiance jams or mag issues... accuracy wise i never had a problem with mine but its cycling reliability using subs was pants from my experiance and was one of the main reason a chopped mine in for a bolt action. Hope you can get it sorted mate.

Yes the mag, im at that stage now!! My legs are getting bruised! Same here the accuaracy is spot on, and i have a good silencer.

Did think about taking the mag apart, but i wont bother now.

Im using Elly Subs, did use winchester for a while but i couldnt get on with them.

Common problem then. I've had the rifle for 6 years, and changed 2 mags for this problem.

if you look up ruger 10/22 on you tube there is a few blokes on there do the strip down for the mags and a rifle clean,if you take the mag apart one less turn on the spring when putting it back together sometimes works,had my 10/22 a year now and put thousands of rounds through it but i strip it every third time out and give it a really good clean and polish,i never oil as the shite builds up very easy on rimmys.
