If you’ve spent any time at the range or in the field, chances are you’ve seen—or shot—a Ruger® 10/22®. Since its debut in 1964, this little rimfire has earned a reputation as one of the most reliable, versatile, and fun rifles ever made. Affordable, endlessly customizable, and an absolute blast to shoot, it’s no wonder the Ruger 10/22 has become a true American classic.
But even classics can be made better.

Customization Heaven: Why Shooters Love the 10/22
One of the main reasons the Ruger 10/22 has stood the test of time is its unmatched customization potential.
Aftermarket support for the 10/22 is the gold standard in the rimfire world. You can start with a plain factory rifle and, with the right upgrades, turn it into nearly anything you want:
-
Add a Kidd barrel for tack-driving precision.
-
Swap in a lightweight barrel and stock for the ultimate backpacking rifle.
-
Build a fully decked-out tactical trainer with optics, rails, and accessories.
-
Go quiet with an integrally suppressed Gemtech Mist or Innovative Arms barrel.
Ruger even offers a wide range of factory models—from takedown versions to precision-target builds—so the platform grows with you. For many shooters, one Ruger 10/22 is never enough.
The Ruger BX Magazine System: A True Innovation
While the 10/22 gets plenty of credit for its reliability and accuracy, one of its most underrated features is the magazine system.
The standard 10-round rotary mag is compact, durable, and feeds flawlessly—part of what makes this rifle run so smooth. But when you want more capacity, Ruger gives you options:
-
BX-15 Magazine – 15 rounds of .22 LR
-
BX-25 Magazine – 25 rounds of .22 LR
More capacity means more fun, whether you’re plinking, hunting small game, or running drills.
The Only Downside: Loading BX Mags by Hand
Here’s the catch: as much as we love BX magazines, loading them by hand is a pain.
-
The spring tension builds fast.
-
Tiny .22 LR rounds slip and dig into your thumbs.
-
After a couple of mags, your fingers are begging for a break.
By your third or fourth magazine, you’re spending more time fighting with ammo than enjoying your rifle.
And that’s exactly where the Speed Beez Lever Loader changes everything.
