After 5000+ rounds in one of my ruger 10/22.. all my 4 Butler creek mags are a little bit shaky in it which create a few failure to feed .. and one time at the range, i was pulling the bolt handle to chamber a round and the mag fell. can see the shakiness on the mag left and right a little by moving the rifle. when i touch the mag release on the opposite side (not to release the mag) i got the feeling that it become solid for a few second but become wobbly again quick.

The only hint i got from the range instructor was to maybe put a bit of oil on the round part with a hole in the center, that keep the mag steel pin and hold the mag

Is there a way to adjust it... is that situation ever happen to one of you ? Can it be adjusted so the round part (in the red circle) extend a bit more .. could this be the solution ?

thank you for your input.. help.. im pretty sure im not the first ruger 10/22 owner that had that happen.
 
Not much help but I have the opposite problem on my brand new take down. The mag that came with it is snug going in and out and the second ruger brand name 10 rd mag I bought won't even fit in the stock!!!
 
I just purchased 2 butler creek 25rd magazines. One functions ok, it's a little shaky. The second magazine sits too high and prevents the bolt from closing.
