Re: 22BR feeding from magazine
I will have a go at describing how I think you can do it
First shorten magazine follower
Block the front of the mag box with an L shaped piece with the short part of the L at the top to act as an extension of the feed ramp
That is how my Sako was done for the 17 Mach IV and it worked (but so did the standard follower )

Yeah thats sorta what I reckon you need to do. With the LSA55 being a push feed you shouldn't have any trouble with it feeding as long as the projectile doesnt get pushed down at the front.

Re: 22BR feeding from magazine
The standard 22 and 6br case is a bit of a bugger to feed from a mag, but the dasher or BRX case is easier. You probably have one of the better actions and mags to make worth though. Missed is on the money with it.
