I thought that Rugers used a modified controlled feed. I now feed mine singly from the magazine.

Well, if it is "modified controled round feeding" it's the only Ruger I've ever owned, out of dozens, that won't feed single rounds???

I think there is a burr holding things up or some rough spot somewhere that needs smoothing. I agree with you Bobby that the Rugers are designed to single feed. The extractor hook has quite a bit of angle and/or bevel cut onto it , compared to M-70 s or Mausers .

I think you misunderstand, Geronimo, I've owned far more than a dozen Rugers, owned a gun shop for 15 years, and this is the first Ruger, as far as I can remember that would not feed single rounds. It's no big problem, just curiosity. The Ruger is a modified Mauser, as is the Model 70 and should feed singly. It is designed to feed a single round, whereas the original Mauser is not.
