Nothing at all wrong with 20 round mags. As a matter of fact, I still use a 5 round mag for shooting off the bench and hunting. The 5 round doesn't dig in my back packing between calling sets. The local gunshop just doesn't stock 20 rounders as they do 30 rounders.


Where do you find 5 round mags? Are they flush fitting or close to flush? I tried to find some and came up empty. Everything I found online was simply a 10 or 20 round mag with a limiter inside. I want a true 5 round mag that fits flush for hunting purposes.


I bought mine from Bushmaster years ago. And yes they are almost flush. Might extend about 1/4" below magwell.

failure to pull a fired case completely out of the chamber and then closing on it plus the next one. They were adding oil when I left them...anyone know if the chamber is nitrided or chromed? Could have just been a bit of rust.

They should have added oil before.

Normally a failure to extract the case from the chamber indicates a dirty chamber. If the rifle is new, and the chamber is clean, there could be another issue - but most often it's the cleanliness.


One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.

I just shot mine tonight. It is accurate with 40 gr VMAX Hornady.


I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!
