mellow13 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) I've read some mixed reviews about these mags. I'd like to hear you experiences. Does anyone provide tuning services for these mags to make them run more reliably? Btw, they're in stock right now at palmetto state armory if anyone is interested.

wgj3 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Reliability has been questioned. That said, I bought a used one off a guy after he had somehow broken the follower. Sent it back to SF. They repaired it and it has run fine for me in 2 different rifles. Plenty of others have spent more $ and had much worse luck. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonT Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I only have one that I got new and it's always worked fine with no tuning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I have had mixed results. What I have found is this. Keep it loaded with rounds less than 2.230 and it runs great. Go over that and you can get the salt shacker. I own 2. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxshooter Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I have heard there are problems getting them back together after you take them apart to clean. Any body experience this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fueddy Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Took my 3 times after taking it apart and wiping the inside and parts with a silicone cloth. Follow Alaskapopo to the letter and you'll be fine...no steel cases either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nheiny13 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 It didn't work when my rounds were loaded at 2.240. I shortened the rounds to 2.220 and it runs great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeinrichDerLowe Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Runs great in my JP rifle, although I'm not loading anything long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellow13 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Thanks to everyone for all the feedback. I went ahead and bought a couple. I guess the consensus is to keep the oal on the shorter end and all should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
