We performed ultracold neutron storage measurements to search for additional losses due to neutron (n) to mirror-neutron (n^\ensuremath') oscillations as a function of an applied magnetic field B. In the presence of a mirror magnetic field B^\ensuremath', ultracold neutron losses would be maximal for B\ensuremath≈B^\ensuremath'. We did not observe any indication for nn^\ensuremath' oscillations and placed a lower limit on the oscillation time of \ensuremathτ_nn^\ensuremath'>12.0 s at 95% C.L. for any B^\ensuremath' between 0 and 12.5 \ensuremathμT.
