Ruger BX-25 round mags

[Mike]

It took almost three months to get my first two mags. These next two only took two weeks. Things are looking up.

Good deal.
Where did you order them from? Would like to get a couple myself. Thanks

Do they work well? I've got one in my closet that's going to collect dust until I buy a 10/22 or until I can quadruple my money on it!

Thanks. They've been out of them at Gander the last 80 times i"ve checked.
I did pick up one of the clear ones made by Champion with the ez loader. Not sure how it compares to the bx 25.

I think you lost your window of opportunity. I'll shoot mine tomorrow and let you all know. I'll feed it different ammo brands too. I've heard they work flawlessly.

That's where you're wrong! Gosh, actually let me change that - I hope you're right Mike...hope it never comes to a ban!!

My real window of opportunity is that I paid $25 for it and even if it sits in my closet with several other .22 clips, it'll be worth it in 20 years when my kids are the only ones on the block to have a dad with magazine clips. How do I know that? Cause I grew up in the first ban, and sumbitch those kids with 2 25 round clips duct taped together were the shit!

Well, three of the four did not cycle through all 25 rounds.
The one that didn't fail had CCI Standard Velocity.
The failures had CCI Standard velocity, Winchester T22 and Remington 22 Thunderbolt.

My gun (Rem) won't shoot Thunderbolts anyways. It shoots federals well though.

I'd imagine you're breaking the spring in as well as figuring out what kind your gun likes...sucks considering it's still impossible to find ammo anyways.

I have one of the ruger 25 rd magazines and it runs fine, the off branded ones are hit out miss in my experience. I prefer the 10 round ones any way.

I agree I like the 10 rounder better also. But the 25s are fun sometimes plinking.
