Rhino Arms 500rd 10/22 drum???

[Antihero]

So does anyone have pics of this thing? 500 rounds in a mag sounds.....fun.

 

[Big_E]

I might just have to have a 10/22 where I can quick swap barrels ala LMG style with that kind of mag...

But how many missfeeds are we talking about?

 

[Bad Hammer]

I don't see it mentioned on their website.

 

[Titan6]

I wonder how many jams would come with a 500 round drum on a 10/22 5? 50? 100? 499? I am willing to put money on 50-100.

Load it on Sunday and shoot it all...... year.

 

[jhco]

American 180 don't seem to have jam issues but then again they don't hold 500rds either

Load it on Sunday and shoot it all...... year.

More like shoot it on Sunday and load it all year.....I used to have those 25 round jamomatic mags, I can't imagine the issues, let alone the weight on the mag catch, that a 500 round would impart

Not available yet.

Their web page says Winter 2009, so you have to wait a few more months.

It's known as "The Brick"

Good news for all you Mini-14 fans, it looks like 2010 will be year you can get a 90 round drum for your gun.

all you gotta do to make your 10/22 more reliable ,is make a ramp and polish it to a mirror finish ,ive done it to quite a few guns, and all are reliable with every magazine maker.

 

[non2os13]

how did you make a ramp? i am curious to see this.

It'd be something like 2 or 3 pounds of ammo wouldnt it?

. here it is it works with the 10-22 and mini series use hard stone and then felt wheel with polishing compound.

 

[stubbicatt]

The Machinist: Do you ever blow cases out at the rim with that ramp?

 

[jordan1948]

I don't see what he did??

 

[THE MACHINIST]

no catt ive checked for bulged cases after firing maxi mags no problems at all ,but dont overdo it.

 

[ronbuick]

Looks like he chamfered the end of the barrel, l did the same to my Charter
arms AR-7, could not fire more than 1,2, or 3 rounds without jamming, took a Dremel
tapered stone and twirled it in my fingers, tried a few rounds, did a little more, voila,
now I can fire off a 15 round mag with 12 rounds in the mag and no more jamming, it
makes to what seems a nice transition into the breech, machinist prolly would know more than I, if he would like to chime in and correct me!! thanks.

ha first off ive heard about these in humorous conditions for a while ill believe it when i see it

secondly they will be rediculously overpriced

and third you will probably get 499 jams out of them as previously stated

if im wrong on ALL three counts then ill buy one hell maybe even two otherwise im sticking with my stock 10 rounders and tactical inc mags

 

[CnRnut]

I'd like to see the "brick" hanging from a Tec-22 !!!!

 

[goldie]

i had to make a feed ramp on a butler creek barrel,the edge was so sharp it was cutting the heads of the bullets.once a slight ramp was done its been perfect ever since...

 

[Mandolin]

How long is htat going to take to load? I hope it comes with come devicethat you dumpa case of ammo into, then crank a handle and it loads. otherwise, you'll spand hours laoadign , hours unjaming, and an hour fireing. You can span a whole day at the range and only use 1 mag

Which mags are you talking about?

 

[CMP]

My dad has a 50rd Ram line that never has any problems.

You may want to keep and cherish that mag...........cause it's the only one they made that works right.

 

[Wanta B]

Hmmm...The first Ramline 30rnd magazine I got in '85 finaly stopped feeding corectly last month. I got two others in the interum that did not work worth beans!! I have never found a 25rnd Bultler creek magazine that did not work,mine nor any of my freind'ses'es'es. I personaly love the Steel Lips smoke greys. Have 52 of them. The Hot-Lips will break the little nub off if hit while dopping to prone,etc. Want to try the Tactical Solutions all metal!!

 

[Dimis]

Wanta the tac inc mags are well worth the money either way you go (metal or poly) ive got 4 that are flawless

its either those or the factory 10 round mags

id love to see a higher capacity magazine but i know if it works it will be so expencive i wont want it OR it will be cheap and function like garbage

i do have one question about "the brick"

how do you suppose they will support all the weight of 500 rounds hanging from the ruger?

just wanted to add the tac inc mags with the steel lips not all polymer i havnt tried the poly lips yet (and wont any time soon)
