Magnum Research

[KB_TX]

Can anyone provide feedback on the Magnum Research 10/22 Magnum Lite rifles? I have heard good things mostly, but a few bad things as well. I have heard the trigger group is the same as the Ruger, I don't know if that is true. I have also heard of some feed issues as well. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: Magnum Research

I just sold my Magnum Research 10/17 in 17HM2. The only reason I sold it was to help fund glass for my Savage BAS. I loved the rifle and it was easily a sub moa gun. The receiver is a bomb proof billit piece with a nice machined rail on top. The trigger is typical Ruger and could be better, but other than that, I loved the thing. I had the Hogue stock model, really light too. Mine had a preference for the Hornady V-Max ammo over the others. I did have some FTE, but only with some of the Remington ammo, not all.

Hope that helps,
Matt

I've got a couple of the MR barrels and love them. Best lightweight barrel on the market IMHO.

Re: Magnum Research

I had one in 17 HMR. It was accurate, but would constantly stovepipe with virtually all ammo. It does use the same trigger as any magnum ruger 10/22 setup. I upgraded mine to a Kidd setup. Sold it because I preferred a bolt gun configuration.

Re: Magnum Research

I have one in .22mag I bought last Sept.

Excellent rifle. The trigger blows, with the money spent on the thing they could of went with a better trigger. I'll replace mine one of these days with a Kidd.

Mine is accurate. Mine stovespipe the CCI TNT's. If I run Remington 33g Vmax or Hornady's Vmax, it feed's 100%.
