I 've had it with this rifle. My 59722mag Hvy Brl. , is accurate and when the mags work FUN to shoot , but these mags suck. I can never get more that 5 / 6 round to work if I put the limit, the last two won't cycle. I hate these magazines! My Ruger10/22 mag with all the custom upgrades is a far superior weapon. I'm ready to sell this gun and the 7 or 8 steel mags....My buddy wants to trade me a 10/22T for the 597...May take him up on it.

If you push the follower down with something, does it go up and down easily when it's empty? (push in the front)
If it hangs up, there might be some rough edges on it.
Other than loading it so the rim of a round goes behind the rim of the round below it (although I cant do that even when I try) cant see why it wont feed.
I usually brush a powdered lube inside the mag of my LR and it feeds smooth as silk.
