Takedown Charger and new BX-15 Magazine

If I only bought things because they were useful, I'd have precious little in my home, lol!

Looks fun! I just wish I could get those BX25s for my 1022s to feed properly. Jam-o-matics. The crummy butler creeks run much better for me through 2 different guns. The nose of the rounds seem to hang up on the front of the mag, before they get a chance to get to the feed ramp. :/ Federal, Remmy, Winnie, plated or lead, round or HP, makes no difference. :l Edited by musicman

Maybe you got some duds.  I have 5 of them that run perfect in 3 different guns.  I've never had any issue with them.  

 

Yeah I have 10 or 12 of them, run perfectly in two different 10/22s. My previous Butler Creek steel lips mags were never 100% until I did the silicone spray trick inside them.

 

Music, if you have original factory extractor in your 10/22, that could be the prob. That thang accounts for a host of feeding/jamming problems on any given 10/22 that masquerade as something else.

I have four BX 25s, bought over 3 transactions in about 2 yrs. One seems to function a little less poorly than the other three, but that could be untrue... I'm not logging the jams in a spreadsheet, lol!

Yea, I need to look into the extractor issue, and generally have the thing worked over... wish Graycrait was a little closer! ;-)

Volquartsen extractor piece of cake to install, heavy paperclip, tiny screwdriver or whatever to hold back spring, and most don't even change the spring just the extractor. That's what I did. Found most all the "rounds that the 10/22 doesn't like", they are liked just fine now.

 

Whole bunch of different kind of failures simply due to poor angle on factory extractor not holding spent case properly all the way back to ejector. You can file the factory one, but then it's still the soft MIM with even less support, compared to hardened one that Volquartsen uses.
