Yes, meteorites are magnetic. This is due to the fact that they are mainly composed of iron, which originates from the core of rocky planets.
Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
The most common magnetic element found in meteorites is iron. Another common element in meteorites is nickelwhich is also magnetic. Some meteorites also contain Cobaltwhich again is also magnetic.The most common meteorites are H-Group Chonderites which make up about 31% of all meteorites ever found. They also contain the most metal at 15 - 20%.Of this metal normally about 70% is Iron with about 29% nickel and trace amounts of cobalt along with other non magnetic metals including gold, platinum and silver.
No. Nickel-iron meteorites are perhaps the most common of all those recovered.

Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.
There are 3 main classifications of meteorites; Stony-iron meteorites, Iron meteorites and Stony meteorites. Stony-iron meteorites are mainly composed of meteoric iron which can be also found in Iron meteorites, Iron meteorites commonly contains iron nickel alloy and the Stony meteorites are the meteorites consists of silicate.
What is the size range of meteorites?
Oman has 2.412 meteorites.
