OK, the mags from FCW arrived and we had a chance to test them and they do not feed up the ramp, they are a fraction too short. Anyone need a couple mags for Marvel conversions?

Any other ideas?

Sent you a PM Brent.

Good quality .22LR ammo ??? Might sound dumb but plinking ammo (bulk) and pistols are more often then not a bang, bang, stovepipe, bang, stovepipe, bang, bang, bang, short cycle, bang. The mags might be just fine? I only use CCI in my pistols if its important. Bulk if its not. And much cleaning with .22 being so filthy. I tend to run my semi-auto's wet with Mobile1.-WW

We used exactly what the MFR recommends, plus some hotter stuff. The rounds don't like to feed to the top of the mag. I am going to shim the one OEM that fails to feed. The other was 100% again for practice Thursday.

We have some Euro stuff that is supposedly cleaner to try as well. They aren't shooting pistol at WI state so we have a bit of time. Ordered a Tendemkross kit for the 10/22 mags so they can be cleaned easier. 4 stages with at least 5 strings up to 10 rounds per string, two kids in two 10/22 classes ends up a lot or rounds through the mags. Good thing we have 7. I am also glad they don't shoot 10mm or something. .45ACP will be bad enough.

22 conversion kits
 
My favorite and most reliable 22 conversion is a Sig unit that goes on top of a Sig P220 frame. The mags are propriatary (?) to the Sig pistol and can be a bit hard to find. Unless something is really dirty, it always works unless the cartridge is bad. I don't know if Sig still makes these conversion units but I recommend trying to find one. Of course then you would have to pick up a Sig P220 (wink, wink) to make it all work.

Yes, powerful .22LR rounds. It's quite a bit of mass for the recoil to move.

And a good quality thin oil lubricating the slide. Not one of those dry lubes.

Except they will be shooting in the 1911 class so the Sig, while a fine firearm, would be for plinking.

The rounds we have are 1480fps and we use FP7 as that is what was shipped with the kit.
