Never done it before but i wouldnt think it takes that long unless its dull or your doin it wrong. My firends dad is a plumber and he cuts through good size pipe in no time with hiw pipe cutter.

I think you're supposed to score the pipe with the cutter and then break it off, hopefully it breaks off at the score line. If yours is like the one I have it's intended for copper/brass. I'm glad it worked on your mag. have any pics?
