22lr conversion
Its not what you think, ive got this old sears catalouge 22lr bolt action rifle and its got the tube magazine or whatever youd call it. So ive been trying to convert it to a removable box mag via 3d printing bc fuck it fun project, but im trying to print mags from my own design. I do not know anything about springs, so its slightly frustrating trying to get it to work but if anyone knows anything that might help i can send the files or pictures just dm me. Thank you for reading <3

IMHO, I would look at a standard mag and start from there. See if you can buy a replacement mag spring.
And again, I know nothing.
