Assembled DoubleKross Magazine FAQs
Is the DoubleKross Magazine legal for competition?
Legality depends on your sanctioning body and shooting class. Each compartment holds 10 rounds, matching the standard factory magazine count, so the DoubleKross is generally legal in classes that permit 10-round magazines. Steel Challenge and most NRL22 rulebooks do not restrict round count per magazine during most stages; verify current rules with your local match director before competing. The magazine is a coupled 10-round design, not a high-capacity magazine under most federal definitions, but check your state laws. The DoubleKross cannot ship to several states.
Does the DoubleKross Magazine fit my 10/22® without modifications?
Yes, for all listed compatible models: Ruger® 10/22® Carbine, Takedown, Takedown LITE, Compact, Tactical, Sporter, Target, 22 Charger™, and the TKX22 Light Rifle. The DoubleKross uses the same rotary magazine footprint as the factory 10-round magazine and seats in the same receiver. No modifications to the firearm are needed. If you are running an aftermarket chassis or stock with a non-standard magazine well, verify clearance before purchase.
How do I reload with the DoubleKross Magazine?
After your first 10 rounds, drop the magazine, rotate it 180 degrees so the second compartment faces forward, and reinsert. This flip-reload is faster than seating a separate magazine because the motion is consistent and the magazine stays in your hand throughout. Load both compartments before your stage and you have 20 rounds ready across two identical insertions.
What is the difference between the Assembled DoubleKross and the DoubleKross Magazine Body?
The Assembled DoubleKross Magazine includes the complete, tuned magazine ready to load and shoot, with all internal components installed and optimized at the factory. The DoubleKross Magazine Body is the housing only, sold separately for shooters who want to build or rebuild their own magazines using parts they already have. If you want a drop-in, ready-to-run magazine, choose the assembled version. If you are replacing a damaged body or building a custom setup, the body alone is the right choice for you.

DoubleKross Magazine
I purchased this mag to shoot a 22 2gun match created at our local gun range. You always have to do a reload due to 10 round capacity so I bought this so I would not drop a mag on the ground during reloads, I just rotate it to the next ten, I have noticed some brand mags fit tighter than others, this one was on the tighter side which made it a little tougher than some to reinstall in the Ruger SR22 rifle I was using. I have not tried the mag in any other 10/22s to give a comparison. I plan to buy more.

DoubleKross
The DoubleKross for Ruger 10/22 worked well in the Bergara BMR Steel. The concept is handy and never had an issue feeding. It's a bit difficult to load, but those mag's are always a little awkward.

Doublekross
Worried about plastic rails, but work just fine, my third one, work really good when the match requires to reload rapidly. Also steel challenge, only have to carry 3 magazines

great product
I'm so happy that this is now available as a completed unit. I purchased one of their kits and used it to convert two of my old 10 round mags. That worked well but it took a little doing to get the spring tension just right. Here I don't have to worry about that. Way to go Tandemkross.
