Do you like 20 or 30 round mags better?

Why?

I want to order a bunch and it seems like the 20 rounders are nicer for bench and prone shooting - have not tried any 30s, but would like to hear some opinions before I order.

i like the 30rnder mags better--usually cheaper, more available, and i dont shoot prone too much

a couple of 20rnders would not be a bad idea for prone shooting, but for me, i'm satisfied w/ the 30rnders

get USGI mags--NOT the aftermarket/civilian crap mags

i just got 10 from www.bravocompanyusa.com for a great price--the body is USGI, but they changed the floorplates--have not fired any rnds through em yet....

i like the both

30's hold more, readily available

20's work better prone/bench and majority of the time 20 rounds come in a box of ammo

i have way more 20's than 30's though

While I do have a bunch of 30's, I usually just take the 20's when I go shoot.
Just like them better.

My chest carrier, and mag pouches are all set up for 30's so I have 20. I used my 2 twenties for sighting in purposes though.

of the 30 or so I have, 4 are 20's (I know, 30 aint shit...I can hear it now...

...but they are all loaded, if that helps!

)

I agree with the above opinions on why

Only 30 mags? That ain't shit.

(Someone had to do it.)

I have 30s & 20s. I like the 20s in my rifles and the 30s in my carbines.

I have no issues using the 30's shooting prone, and all my mag pouches are set up for them, so, 30 rounders it is.
