    Very true, but individual components have to be properly constrained within themselves and designed to be part of a functioning assembly as a whole. To design one thing and expect it to function properly across a wide variety of other things (without proper data) that make up an assembly is the...

    Yo, Dude, not too soon at all, in fact, right on time. The one action I'll speak to now has the conventional thread-and-torque interface as its driven specifically to the Rimfire PRS/NRL crowd where other interface types for the barrel could be troublesome. But from the face of the receiver and...

    Thank you, Jim, you've definitely been around for the long haul, and I always appreciate your in-depth and right-down-the middle contributions. The legacy Nylon mags have been my all-time favorite and I'm working things back in that direction with the new stuff starting with the heart of the...

    Thank you, Sir, your words are very humbling. I've not openly shared as much or in the way I have of late, but I've felt it has been important to bring down a level of noted frustrations. This community is dear to me, so I've been compelled to share at a higher technical level and approach it...

    Yo Dude, shoot an email to [email protected] and I'll get you sorted out. The new 10 round magazine is in prototyping and moving along very well, in addition to a number of other things. You can also get more info without readding 200 plus pages in my FB Group. If you're on FB, do a...

    To add context to not just what @Williwaw is saying, but to confirm with data what everyone has said when it comes to slop, feed/cycling issues, etc. The pic below is a depiction of an actual AICS mag well with dims taken directly from their print and toleranced smack in the middle of their...

    There's a lot to unpack here, but largely, I disagree with most of it. "It's only a 22LR round" ignores the fact that the 22LR is the most difficult and sensitive round to feed properly. That means, the margin of error is very small when it comes to ensuring, when fed in a repeater, that...

    Yo Dude, Thank you for being an RO, as it lends an incredible amount of credibility to your stated observations. And, I like your use of the word, "janky," as it coincides with how well @ChrisKinsman communicated the symptoms of the greater issues. One thing I'm digging into this morning, to a...

    Thank you, again, for being willing to step outside the "conventional" envelope and throwing spaghetti on the wall. It truly is how this stuff works, and I've personally gone down numerous paths over the years that started out as a "very good bad idea" (I'm not in any way putting your above...

    Very well stated, Chris, and you summed up all the symptoms of the greater problem. I've thought about sharing the dims, but the problem is, reference points to arrive at a measured dim will likely be different for everyone, which is no help at all. I'm working on how to address this. Limiting...

    Absolutely, by adhering to two, simple dimensions (as it pertains to the chassis itself) that drive the vertical positioning of the magazine. Of course there are other things to consider, but assuming those are as they should be, the rest is simple. MB

    Good progress on the Magazine portion of the system-oriented project. Although the material can't handle the spring pressure, the purpose of the exercise depicted in pictures was to qualify the driving equations for magazine capacity, starting with the 10-round version. As luck would have it, my...

    Sir, you summed it up to a "T." Thank you, and no, you're not being impertinent, and you said what ought to be said. The supposed solutions have become distractions that have led to bigger problems. You've also recognized the reasoning behind developing a system based strictly on data and...

    Proper feeding of a 22LR isn't about just one thing, or even two things. The basis of proper feeding is timing due to the need to control the round on its path to the centerline of the bore. Properly accommodating the distance of the magazine from the breech, departure angle of the follower and...

    Parts are still churning at two vendors. I dumped a lot of parts on them at once, so they're digging through the pile. Thanks, Dude. MB

    Chicken dinner for the first to tell me how many followers are in this overlay; the basis of which is my original follower from 2010. There's one that isn't in the overlay because the departure angle isn't the same and it's the one that I get reports on of shaving lead "when adjusted...

    I’ll post overlays of numerous followers atop my original follower from 2010 that show the exact same departure angle. The aftermarket samples are marketed as “enhanced.” All this follower hoopla started when someone at VGW pressed a follower to a belt sander by hand because someone said Eley...
