ANSCHUTZ MAGAZINE 22LR 10 SHOT

This Anschutz magazine in .22 LR holds 10 rounds and is the factory feeding solution for Anschutz 1420 and related model rimfire rifles. Anyone who owns one of these rifles already knows they are built to a precision standard very few production guns approach, and the magazine carries far more of that accuracy equation than most shooters give it credit for. A factory unit is made to fit your rifle correctly and feed consistently, round after round, without the misfeeds that plague bargain substitutes.

What this Anschutz magazine is and who it is for

This is the genuine article for the 1420 series and its close relatives, a 10 shot .22 LR unit built by Anschutz to the same tolerances as the rifle that receives it. Rimfire match rifles are unforgiving of sloppy parts, and a magazine that sits a fraction off presentation shows up as a flyer or a stoppage at the worst possible moment.

It suits the silhouette shooter running long strings, the small game hunter who wants a full afternoon between top ups, and the collector who simply wants the rifle complete and correct. If your 1420 came to you without its magazine, this is the part that makes it a rifle again instead of a very expensive single shot.

Features worth paying for

Factory rimfire magazines are a quiet piece of engineering, and the details are what separate them from copies.

• Genuine factory part for Anschutz 1420 and related models
• 10 round capacity in .22 LR for long strings without interruption
• Built to the rifle’s own tolerances for correct seating and release
• Consistent round presentation for smooth, repeatable chambering
• Made to the precision standard these rifles are known for

Specifications of the Anschutz magazine in plain terms

The chambering is .22 LR and the capacity is 10 rounds, which is the standard for this family of rifles and the number most rimfire disciplines are built around. That is enough for a full silhouette bank, a complete practice string, or a morning in the hedgerows without breaking position to reload.

Fitment covers the 1420 and related models, so if your rifle lives in that family the magazine goes in the way the original did, with no filing, bending or shimming. Nothing about this part asks you to modify the rifle, which matters a great deal on a gun whose value rests on being unaltered.

Ten rounds is also the practical number for a range session, filling a standard string without the awkward count that comes from a five shot magazine. Competitors already know the value of a matched pair, one in the rifle and one loaded in the pocket ready to go.

Practical use, care and buying advice

Load deliberately, seating each rim behind the one below it, and the rimfire cartridge’s one real handicap disappears. Rimmed cases stack badly when they are rushed, and a few seconds of care at the bench prevents nearly every feeding hiccup that gets blamed on the rifle.

Keep it clean and dry rather than oiled. Lubricant inside a rimfire magazine body attracts wax, lint and unburned powder, and that mixture is what eventually turns a smooth feeder into a sticky one. Wipe the body and follower with a dry cloth after range trips and store it unloaded when the rifle is put away for the season.

Factory magazines for fine European rimfires are notoriously hard to find in stock, so if your rifle is down to a single magazine, a spare now is cheap insurance against the one small part that can sideline the entire gun. It is worth checking the rest of our rifle and pistol magazine selection at the same time if you feed more than one rimfire.

Genuine fit, honest capacity and the reliability the rifle deserves, which is exactly what a factory Anschutz magazine should deliver. Buy the spare while it is on the shelf. Ships direct to your door, no FFL required.
