HC3R feeding issues

I picked up a few of these in a mag package off of the EE a while back and they've caused me nothing but problems. Every review I've seen have said that they're amazing, I must have gotten the only 3 out there that seem like crap. Whether I've got 2 rnds in the mag, or the full 25, the rounds never sit right. Instead of pointing nose up to feed into the barrel chamber, they always, always point nose down. I saw several Youtube vids about people pushing down on the spring compressing knob to help the rounds sit properly but that didn't do a thing for me. I'm getting to the point where I think that they'd be better used as targets than as actual mags. I've tried American Eagle, Remington Golden Bullet and CCI Standard and they've all had the same issues. Any ideas on what I could do to fix this issue? I love the concept behind them and if they fed properly, they'd definitely be my go to mags. Thanks.
 
The 3 you got can be added to the 2 I got that would best be served as expensive skeet targets.

There's a reason they end up on the EE on a fairly regular basis. They just don't work with a lot of the 10/22's out there.
 
its all technique. you really have to follow the directions. You load them normally then shake it a few times and turn it upside down. The rounds stack properly when done by gravity and they work well. There is a definite learning curve but once you get it they work well.

BS.

Seen the videos, know how to load them. Still garbage. Still good for skeet and nothing else.
