my thumbs are hurting just thinking about it

Its a good kind of pain
Actually I was thinking the other day about how cool it would be to have a mag that was fed by a hopper. I wouldn't know how to do something like that but something you could dump a whole box of ammo into and just fire away would be cool.

I'm sure something like that could be made... You can't expect it to be perfect at first, but as long as people keep trying, eventually it should work well enough. Just look at how many changes have been made to paintball hoppers.
A modification to the receiver might be needed: Think belt-fed rifle, but with a hopper instead. The hopper could be based on how the magazine loaders work: A slot the ammo falls into. With a added plastic/rubber punch that pops up from the bottom of the hopper to mix things up and allow it to feed into the slot a little better. From the slot it would feed through the elbow and be set for insertion.... That's where I think it would be a bit more difficult to get it to function with a hopper, since the 10/22 was designed to be fed from the bottom. Many modifications to the rifle would be need... So unless someone can figure out some sort of a anti-gravity hopper that will feed into a stock rifle, I don't see it happening.
I'd be more than happy enough with a belt-fed 10/22 though.
