Sako Quad 10rd 22LR magazine

Re: Sako Quad 10rd 22LR magazine

Does anyone have a 10 rounder that reliably feeds the 10 rounds? I'm debating sending my mag back to Beretta, but I've heard that all of these mags suffer from this.

Ugh! I called them and they won't take it back since I bought it from thecountryshed.com

It has to be returned to the distributor if you didn't buy it from them. I can't seem to find Quad mags on their site even though the guy on the phone said they are there.

What brand and type of ammo are you using that work OKay in these mags? When you load the 10th round, does it fit very tightly?

I use Wolf match ammo but had no trouble with them when my friend was shooting my rifle with Walmart CCI. Its not abnormally tight with 10 rounds loaded. Feeds all 10 rounds just fine. I read about the problems people are having after I had already got them but I had not shot the gun yet. I took them out for the first time expecting problems but they worked fine

Re: Sako Quad 10rd 22LR magazine

I suspect that the tightness when loading the ninth and tenth rounds (that makes it impossible to feed them properly) is due to a slightly larger diameter rim. If so, some ammo with smaller diameter rims should load properly, that's why I asked about ammo that works in some Quad mags.

I have got some Eley at home and will run it next time I got to the range and let you know if it works or not.
