Loading 10/22 mags is slow and a PITA, especially the BX-25's. Today I got one of these bad boys:
The Shooters Ridge 10/22 Ruger Magazine Loader. Only $26.50 shipped from Amazon. Once I played around with it for a few minutes, I was loading them with ease in no time. Just manually load one round in the magazine first and the rest load effortlessly with the loader. I also found that marking the track where 23-24 rounds lined up made it easy to avoid trying to overload them. T
he only concern I have is the all plastic construction. Only time will tell how well it holds up to repeated use.
Still, worth checking out for sure!
