I am looking for a 10" auger upgrade for a strikemaster mag 2000. I have the 8" model and I am hoping that I can just switch out the auger part and have a 10" auger. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

This is a few days late but I would recommend the Eskimo shark. I have a jiffy myself but father in law has the Eskimo, when we go out the jiffy stays at home. It has great torque and is fast. I will have one but I am supporting his daughter and grand kids right now ;D ;)

I also have a Mag 2k and decided to splurge on a Nils. I understand that you want a 10" and those auger bits are available through Strikemaster and on Ebay. For a while there I contemplated on replacing my 8" bit with a Lazer Mag or something but after reading excellent reviews on the Nils, I decided to get it since my hand auger was needing to be replaced anyway. To hook up the Nils to the power head, I had to buy an adapter for it, which added an extra $40 to my cost. The Mag 2k + Nils setup blew me away though by how fast it went through the 16"-18" of ice at Strawberry last weekend. If you want to upgrade both your hand and power auger, the Nils + adapter is good path to take.
P.S. There's a Lazer 224-10" on Ebay for 100+shipping. You may want to check it out.
