I've got 2 magazines, from two different rifles in different calibers, both with the same Browning magazine malfunction.

The second round gets hung up inside the magazine. The follower for whatever reason fails to push the cartridge up to the proper resting spot against the magazine feed lips.

Searches online say the follower spring is weak. Apparently taking the mag apart is a bad idea as they cannot be reassembled.

Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
 
it is a known issue. I had the same problem. I took it apart, and took me hours to put them back together. do not do it.
I fixed it later by sanding off the extra plastic, which rubs the should of the rounds , especially the second one.
play around it and watch carefully , you will find where it is.
too bad that Browning does not admit it is their problem.
