When my mags were new I loaded them to capacity and let them set loaded. With use mine are easier to load but still function.
Thanks for the reply, however, it is not the spring pressure at all that is the problem. The problem is the canting of the first round downward when trying to put rounds 2,3, and 4 in. The feed lips on the sides of the mag are all the way out to the shoulder of the 1st round, so when you try to put in 2,3, and 4, you have to push the case head down on the shoulder of the loaded round It then cants the round in the mag down at a 45 degree angle which makes it very difficult to push the next round in UNDER THE FEED LIPS OF THE MAG. That's about as good as I can explain it.
I love CZ rimfires, and own 4 of the 452's in 22lr. I just sold my 17 hmr because I sold my hunting land. After 20 rounds, I have a second problem, I can't get a group under 3" ctc at 100 yards so far. I was so excited to get this rifle to deer hunt with at short range, that I have to say I am so disappointed I could literally cry. I'm trying to find a spring to put under the follower to fix the mag, and I'm going to try more bullet-powder combo's going forward. Thanks again.
