Tooly, my experience with stripper clips is the same you're having.  They rounds never slide down in the mag, you usually have to push real hard.  It's not because they're new, I've used my stripper clips for a long time and it's always been tight.  I do admit that some stripper clips tend to be tighter than others but if you just push hard enough there shouldn't be any problems.  Hope this helps.

You need to push towards the rear of the cartridge when stripping rounds off the clips and into the mags.  The closer you're pushing towards the bullet tips, the more the rounds bind on the clip and the harder it is to get them off.

It's just a matter of technique and practice.

Ditto what Troy says!

It's just a matter of getting use to it.

Well, I thought that everyone already knew that you had to push on the back of the rounds.  Guess I should make things more simple.

You should try the $0.25 brand new ones from Bushmaster if you think Chuck's are tough!

Chucks are WAY easier to use, since they've been broken in once.  And WAY cheaper.

If you are using Wolf ammo it will be VERY difficult because of the steal case.
