I tried three types of ammo, thunderbolt Winchester was the only ammo I had that worked with the champion. 6 ruger bx-25 magazines failed whilst reloading these magazines, and when it worked jammed up my ruger 10/22 multiple times. I’m not sure, but I think the ammo isn’t being seated correctly. 10rd magazines reload fast and easy with all three types of ammo.
For $32.00 not bad for a fast loader, here’s a feedback from a buyer: I’m thinking of buying 1 for myself,,, When mine arrived, it was a "Shooter's Ridge" brand. With a little research, I found that this and the Champion branded device are the same thing – with two exceptions: 1. The colored plastic parts are "Champion Orange" on that model instead of the green that is on mine. (I like the green better anyway)… and: 2. The Champion model comes with instructions!! This is kind of a big deal considering that there are some important things to know about how to operate ( > and what NOT to do under ANY circumstances < ) with this tool. I suspect that the 'what not to do' items probably account for a good number of the low reviews. There are some good (and a lot of not so good) videos on YouTube that detail the proper way to use it. By all means seek these out before you insert a magazine the wrong way or try to turn the loaging… um… 'handle' clockwise (it goes counter clockwise when looking at it from the bottom – clockwise will quickly turn the whole thing into trash). Make sure you load the first round by hand, and do not try to set any speed records. And whatever you do – DO NOT try to force it to operate if it hangs up… which it will at some point in time. After a half dozen loadings of BX 25 Magazines, I have had it happen twice, and that was on the first two. It might should be called a thumb saver rather than a speed loader – although dumping a box of 22 rounds in the zigzag hopper and shaking it around gets the rounds all lined up the right direction, that's a plus. A little more engineering and better materials would make this a 5 star plus shooting accessory.
What is the round capacity on the included magazine? I have a ramline 30 rounder that is only slightly longer than the Ruger 15-round magazines. The champion mag seems to be in excess of 30 rounds
Bought this loader. Works just as shown. Highly recommended. Super easy to use. Worth the money (I paid more than others roughly $45) I'm sure they sell cheaper in other states.
It looks to be a lock for a second magazine to attach in reverse like the 50 round ruger mags. Not sure but that would be cool. Just figured it by looking at your last image from this video. I don't own a champion mag. But this loader might be my next purchase thanks to you.

the thing at the bottom connects to the upper peg of another champion magazine so that you can connect two mags "jungle mag style"
Did it break yet?

Compare this to a McFadden Lightnin' Grip Magazine Loader, https://www.mcfaden.com/McFadden-Machine-Lightnin-Grip-Loader-s/1828.htm
I would like to see it load ruger 10,22 mag
Will it work on a regular 10 round magazine
I will be looking for this thing at my local gun show.
Use the McFadden Lightnin' Grip Loader

the round thing at the bottom is a Roundy Bottomy Thingy
