Ok, it works...poorly as is with a full mag.
If I were satisfied with one in the pipe and one in the mag (which would be good enough for hunting in 99% of circumstances) it works without flaw every time.
It will need a heat gun to narrow the front part of the feed lips to keep the rounds from prematurely popping out of the 22-250 mag. Or try a .223 mag and see what would need to be modified.
I will use it in its original configuration this season, but I will be putting it back into an American stock next year and playing with it to make it work with the American flush magazines in either 22-250 or .223.
But I am confident in what I saw that it can be made to work with some tweaking of the American mags.
