How do you load a 22 cal magazine tube?

Answer 1

Depends on how it's set up. In a traditional configuration, where the tubular magazine is under the barrel, there'll typically be a cap at the end of the magazine. Rotate it counterclockwise, and pull it out. Attached to it will be a long tube and the magazine spring, and this action will open the magazine for reloading. On some rifles, such as the tubular mag fed versions of the Remington Nylon 66, the magazine inserts into the back of the buttstock. You will again need to rotate the latch counterclockwise until it unlocks, then remove the magazine.
