:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I thought so too.
From High Standard, there is a procedure for tweaking the lips of the magazines to correct problems encountered on their magazines.
I tried it on a couple of My .22 mags and it straightened them out, then on My .380 auto and it worked for them too.
I would try and tweak down the lip on the left side of the magazine just a wee bit and see how it does then.
I will see if I can find their instructions and postum in here. :cowboy:

Well now, that did`nt take long and, it was quite painless too. :cheers:

These adjustment are for the High Standard .22 pistol magazines, but, I believe the same principle applies to most all magazines that are made of steel.
Might also be helpfull to get the factory specs. on the mouth of the magazine to be sure it is within specs. too.
I do`nt know how a person would adjust them poly mags.

Magazine Adjustments

22 Long Rifle

All magazines are gauged to be under .360 wide. However, if you receive a magazine that is wider than .360., you can easily correct this with the use of a dial caliper and a pair of pliers or vise grips.
Magazine feeding is very sensitive to the particular ammunition that is being used. Due to the wide variance in ammunition specifications, the width of the magazines feed lips must be adjusted for the particular target ammunition to be used to obtain maximum reliability.
The basic dimensions should be .230 wide for the rear of the front lips and .185 wide for the front of the rear lips. The front and rear lips should also be kept parallel.
Magazines should always be kept clean and well oiled.

NOTE: 1. The .230 dimension is fairly constant for all ammunition. The .185 dimension should be increased if the bullets are feeding too low, and it should be decreased if the bullets are feeding too high. This adjustment can be accomplished with tools like needle nose pliers. You can also make your own tool with a piece of 1/4 in.1/2 in. flat stock by sawing a slot in the end. 2. Due to the overall length of some 22LR match ammunition, it will be impossible to get it to feed ten (10) rounds properly.

CAUTION: 1. The magazine lips are heat-treated and will break if they are bent too much at one time. 2. Magazine feed lips may drag on slide feed rail if decreased in width too much.

Contact us with any problems or concerns about adjusting your magazine or send it to us to adjust.

High Standard has designed a tool to adjust magazines, please call us.

Decided to empty the Surefire 100 rounder today. Shot three at the paper then shot till I hit the 5 inch steel plate on the dueling tree, all at 100 yards with a Bushnell TRS red dot and the Vortex 3x magnifier I got from BMS. Never took more than three shots to hit the steel and most often it was a one round hit. Went for a head shot on three and that gave me one of the misses on the target. I used my Sig PM400 and sent them as fast as I could acquire the target.
No malfunctions but lots of smoke! :woohoo:

The only magazine that has a built in WIFI and credit card reader so you can keep it filled up.

You enter your charge card number, and the chip senses when you have burned through 800 rounds, and automatically places an order for another 1,000 rounds bulk with express shipping from your favorite ammo supplier.
If I started using 100 round magazines, I would be perpetually ammo poor. I would be on the street corner with a tin cup. " Brother, can you spare a few M855?"

Holy Crap! I am repeating myself! This is my post from over a year ago!
