A buddy of mine didn't listen to me when he bought a .22 rifle and went with a Rem 597 instead of a Ruger 10/22. I know right... but he bought a Glock too so it shows that he has no taste in firearms!!! (I'm kidding! please don't give me another yellow!!)
Any way he is having nothing but problems with his 25 round mags (Rem brand) can't put more than 12 rounds in before it won't feed them into the gun. #1) Is there a better After market mag for his gun?
#2) do they make a mag loader like the hotlips speed loader made for the 10/22 mags?

Thanks for the help guys!
 
1) They seem to be hit and miss
2) no idea

My 597 functions mostly fine with the 10 round stockers. The Remington 30 rounders suck balls. I have three, and none have ever worked flawlessly for me. If you find aftermarket mags (there are some out there for this platform) that work properly ... let me know.

Shoulda bought a 10/22!
