My buddy has a few of these and they work really well----but you won't catch me buying any at those prices---even with the Brownells discount.

I have seen them used at the range, and did not see feed problems with them. I personally would never even consider buying one, especially when you can buy 3 BX25's, and enough ammo to fill them all, for the same price.

I don't hunt or use it for combat. Its a plinker for me. I have several 25 rounders but find that I use the 10 rounders the most. After 10 shots its time to walk out and check the target.

Well okay I do use them in Montana for gophers.

25 round magazines equal less time reloading at the range.

I bought a couple of those several years back, but didn't pay even half of what they cost now.

Yup. My thoughts exactly. Besides, as quick as I can change mags, those BX25's are all I'll ever need.

I've had some pretty tough pop cans that took way more than ten rounds to put down mercifully. And I don't know about the Ruger mags but I have a couple Shooter's Ridge 25 rd. mags that clip together and give me 50 without reloading.

BX-25s are awesome, especially if you are at the range. 10 rounds in a .22 goes by really quick.

I love how easy they are to clean and disassemble too. You can do it in 2 minutes at the range if something goes wrong.
