Reliable 10/22 mag loader???

[PSLguy]

Looking for a good performing 10/22 mag loader. Have a lot of 25+ round mags and kids and I love to shoot them.

Tried the Caldwell, but it binds and dents the rounds. Hand loading them is a drag, especially at the range on a cold day.

Any of you have good experience with mag loaders?

This aint perfect, but it works OK.

You need to develop a rhythm of turning the knob and pausing.

Maglula, kit comes with a loader and unloader.
It's fairly new.
I have had a Butler Creek for several years, bought for loading the 25 round mags, will not work on the ten rounders and very touchy on the 25's.
Turn it too fast and it dents the cases.

I've used the Butler Creek. It works great. You just have to be gentle when cranking the bullets into the mag.

THIS ^^^^^

I love mine.

What's great, it can used adapters to load many ty[pes of 22 magazines

The McFadden is the best invention since sliced bread.

But be warned it will work for about any magazine EXCEPT OEM rugger 10/22 magazines. GO figure that.

I also have the McFadden and it works only on single stack pistol mags, but does a good job at that.

The Maglula 10/22 Lula is probably the best out there for the 10/22

I also have a Caldwell and it is a pain in the *****. You generally have to load the first round, then it'll only load 7 more most of the time and can dent cases. Sometimes it will load 10 without preloading the first round.

Way (WAY!) back when I bought my Butler Creek 25 rd magazines (when it was legal to do so in California), I bought a Butler Creek magazine loader as well---both the magazines and the loader still work just fine in my two 10-22s!

I add another vote for the up lula, I have no problems loading factory ten rounders. It is slow but easier than no loader and your fingers stay alot cleaner.

Did they make tere hanges to the Butler Creek loader in the past 10+ years? I've never had a problem with mine denting cases.

i too use the butler creek one with hot lips magazines

got the 110 rounder during freedom week there is no easier way to load it but once loaded it lasts a while
