    Take them apart and clean them.

    Ruger OEM are the best out there, but like any mag they need to be taken care of.

    Like Hoser said, clean your factory mags, they're the best. If you want hi-cap mags, buy the TI(tactical inovations) mags! Composite ones are $35 and the aluminum ones are $70. Yes a little pricey but can be taken apart for cleaning!!

    my factory ruger mags arent dirty. after posting i opened one up and figured out that tightening the spring would probably solve the issue. i would like to have more than 10rds capacity, but i had larger mags many many years ago and have stuck in my mind that they are crap.

    I've got some older eagle 25 or 30 round cap mags, they are still running strong. They also next together giving you 50 rounds by flipping them pair over.

    Not sure if the eagle mags are made anymore. The steel lips ones should be good too. I'll buy some 10/22 mags in the future and report here their status...

    They might not look dirty, but take them apart and you would be amazed how much wax and powder residue builds up in there. And if you shoot a 22 with a can on, it gets really bad.
