I'm having the Hybird Slugs hang up while shooting. Removing the mag show the slugs are pointing towards the left as you look at the probe end of the mag. I did research and see that there are aftermarket mags to address this. Most say that the "mag wheel" is not large enough in OD. I contacted Utah Airguns to see if FX has a fix, and Zach said that all side shot magazines will shoot them with no issues. He further stated that he has never heard of anyone having this problem.
I did an experiment and cut an 0.008" shim and wrapped it on the inside outer edge of the mag and it appears to work.
How about you shooters, any issues??
 
What caliber? I have three of them. The .22 never had an issue feeding anything. My first M3 .25 had feeding issues but this is when the gun was first introduced with a power block. The second mag I got for the gun was fine. The second M3 .25, no issues feeding anything. If I remember correctly, I took the problem mag apart and put a slight chamfer on every slot. That mag is now mixed in with my other mags and it functions like the rest.

No feeding problems with my M3. That's not to say that I've mastered a tune for these.
