Got my new 10/22 BX-25

[Mat250]

Fits real nice, I'll shoot a few tomorrow and let you all know if I have any problems.

Nice man, I thought they were backordered! How long did it take to get to you?

 

[kboom524]

Looks good! Look forward to hearing how well it works.

 

[sgreen3]

Thats very cool, report asap!

Lucky.

Here is the range report. I put 100 rounds through and had 3 fte. I hadn't had any with the 10 round magazines. I was using cci standard which has been solid for me. This being my first magazine that stuck out past the stock it did effect my grip a little. For $30 it is fun to own but I like the 10 rounders better. You can go through 100 rounds pretty fast. I hope other people have better luck and maybe it will like a different ammo better but for now it gets a B-.

BTW I ordered on 4/29 and got it on 5/6.

According to my Ball State education that is a 97% which equals a solid "A", Ha Ha!

Can't wait to pick some up for my incoming FA 10/22

My guns went to Harvard, they are held to a much higher standard. (In snobby voice)
They have a bit of wiggle to them as well so I was wondering if that had anything to do with it. It does lock in easily though. With some extra credit they could earn an "A"

I like the looks of those and that they are made by Ruger but I prefer to epoxy two factory mags together and buy dust covers to protect the open mag at the bottom. I don't think you can beat the factory 10 rounders plus I just don't like how far the extended mags hang down.

Might take them a while to break in.

 

[ghitch75]

have ran 500 rounds threw mine in 3 different guns......Blazer's......no FTF's or jams...seem pretty good so far....

 

[tyler34]

so what are the benefits of this mag over butler creek steel lipped mags besides the ruger name? they look exactly the same???

 

[Regionnus Rattis]

How much are they? Look a little better and "chunkier" than mine.

 

[ghitch75]

one you can't take butler creeks apart to clean......feed lips are different too....

BC mags are cheap enough that I don't even mess with taking them apart. Once they get to the point of needing any cleaning...I just toss them (which has been very infrequent)

I'm hoping,
I went ahead and ordered a Volquartsen Extractor to speed up the break in process.

Stores

When the Ruger 23 round factory mags hit the store shelves, they will actually be cheaper than than the BC steel lips. I think pricing in the stores should be around $22 or $23 bucks.
