Fix or alternative to a 10/22 feed issues.

[1006]

Often times the feed issue is actually due to a slow running bolt or a bolt that does not fully travel aft during the ejection of the previously fired case. This can be caused by a combination low powered ammo and/or the bolt’s ability to easily cock the hammer after each shot. The rounding off of the bolt’s lower aft edge will help.

If you have a second 10/22, that works with these mags, try swapping the guns’ bolts and see if the problem goes away. Your bolt to receiver fit may be the issue. Oddly enough, if the swap fixes the problem, you may find that the other gun works fine as well. Sometimes factory tolerances “stack up” and cause problems.

Yes very lightly, but it makes no difference at all.
The longer mags don’t fit well and “lean“ slightly downward causing the issue.

I'm using only Ruger Mags.

Weak mag springs/rollers. Just get new mags bro.

Try a butler creek cheap style plastic... not the hot lips... buy two and put one away. Cheap fix but the mags are not easily refurbished.

If your barrel has rotated/ shifted slightly it can cause this result. Pay close attention to the extractor and watch to see if it is in a neutral position as it Enters the barrel. If it favors either side of the barrel you need to loosen barrel and adjust accordingly.
