They work well but need to be loaded very specifically. The mods fairly easy and available on many videos and forums. Google and Youtube are your friend or do a search on here. Its been discussed

I am on Vacation in the usa and ordered the 10/20 version by mistake. I need to send it back

They are nice, but like mentioned you need to load them properly to have them work and not jam.

Dremel work, and some time gets you there.

Order a mag, and you will see exactly what you need to do at that point.

Just recently got one myself. Had some issues first few times I used it but seems all good now. Loading conventionally seems easier for me than with the speed loader stripper clip things.

has anyone figured out what competition mag carrier to get for this? I've been looking for weeks now.

Waaaay better vs. 10/22 oem mags.

+1
Loading conventionally with maglula is the easiest/best for me... no jams at all. just make sure you load 25.

I've never used the stripper. i actually glued the stripper shut.

I can't seem to get my HC3R mags to run well in my 2 SBI builds... the bolt seems to get hung on on them and I get jams or have to force it forward by hand.

It's like they sit too high. Gonna have to try filing the feed lips and rear of the magazine a bit and see if that works.

Anyone else have this issue?

I've had much better luck with the SBI adapter and 597 mags. They run nearly flawlessly.

Would be nice to get the HC3R mags running though... they were expensive and I have 4 of them lol.

I bought an hc3r mag a while ago, modified the receiver according to the instructions that came with it - tried to get it to run a few times - it didn't like me or I don't like it - jam, jam, jam..

What's the best loading video for these magazines? Also, does modifying a stock OEM receiver mean just filing out a notch just behind the vBlock?

I picked up half a dozen of these magazines, hopefully they work.

So does this mean because the hc3r mag has to be modded to fit a 10/22 it would be legal to use? Because it could not readily be used in a charger pistol as is?

as long as your modding the gun and not the mag, you're good to go.

I got a chance to use the magazines today. They jam up quite a bit; perhaps I did not stack them properly. Nevertheless, I prefer them over the 597 since I don't need to use an adapter. I'll post a follow-up if I ever figure it out.
