Model 93r17 magazine problems

[joesavage]

I recently purchased a .17HMR caliber model 93. I took it to the range this weekend. It shoots great. However, every time I load the 5 round magazine, some or all of the rounds fly out the breach after the mag clicks into position. I think the mag is spreading when it is seated and releasing the bullets. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.

Thanks. I squeezed them together and repeened the tabs to keep it from moving again. Seemed to do the trick.
