I tried a couple and could'nt get them to work. When i contacted Superior shooting Systems they sounded like it never happened. Have they worked for you?

My bad, Yes they are 20 rnd. Speedlock/Superior Sooting Systems magazine springs bought from Brownells. When in stalled after about 4-5 rnds. the bullets and follower would tilt up and get worse with more rnds. I wanted to send them to SSS with the magazines to have them checked out but ended up putting them aside, i ran across them cleaning up and was just wondering if anybody else used them.

I bought one of the forty round springs and went to swap it out with and old mag but I saw it was smaller in width and depth than the one in it so I never used it. Got me curious now I may try to find it and try loading it.

Are the springs in the right way? If they're not then you will get the exact problem you're having.
