Let's back up about five years I miss special run of stainless Barrel Ruger American 8 twist 22-250. Good shooting cheaper rifle but anywhere or anyone got a reliable fix or a decent magazine for these yet.

Buy a factory stock that takes the AISC style magazines and use them instead of the Ruger Factory crap mags.
PM me if you need a stock...I think I have one that I'd part with.

I've got a 5.56 and 6.5 grendel in such stocks and arrangements. But 22 250 is too long for mags. , now though about ai style but wonder if that be too long of mag. Or if the stock for long mag would fit the barreled action

Ond can get the needed mag well from ruger? And make any of the other stocks in pic work ? I'm is that p-mag compatable ? Was just looking at the magpul stock option

2 stocks pictured are capable of accepting the AISC mags the other 3 are probably exactly what you have and are not compatible ( they take the rotary style mags)

Ordered a Magpul stock with the AI style mag well. In Black thinking about having it dipped. I wonder what dip pattern or color would look good with a blue and stainless Barrel would look good

Nobody’s mentioned it yet but the 450 Bushmaster American Mags work like a charm. I’ve been running one in mine for a couple years now and haven’t had a single issue. Haven’t looked at prices in a while but was around $20 when I got mine.

Heard that ++ will note the icsc I will say that magazine capacity for reliability is only four rounds also. I just kind of needed an excuse for a new stock I like the way it shoots very accurate

I have one of these rifles but have not run it yet. What is the problem with the magazine?

Feed reliably or at all it might for a few rounds when it's brand new but that won't last long.

I bought the 450 BM mags for my LH 6.5CM Predator. They work great. I don't know why they won't work with the 22-250.

I think they probably will I've heard them before. Couldn't find one with that ordering. Found the Magpul stock but the acis typ mag . That mag is intended for 308 family five shop capacity with a 22-250 and only works good for I've heard the same of the 450 Bushmaster mags .

I should load some 22-250 cartridges in mine to see if there are any issues.

I have 2 Ruger Americans in 22-250, a Predator and one of the 1-8 specials. I haven't had any problems with the rotary mags but did buy a 450 mag and it works just fine also.
