Hi Fellas,

Id been after a Ruger M96 .22lr lever for about 10 years. I posted a WTB on Rimfire Central and got a hit within 3 days. Virtually new coming from Indiana  :) . PAX

One reason to get one was the mag compatibility. You can use 10/22 mags in a 96 but not the other way, 96 mags are flat bottomed, 10/22 are curved and I have a boat load of 10s. I've got hi-cap but I think they'd be a waste and ugly in a classic lever. I'll need to use a scope if I want to  see what I'm plinking  :) PAX

I owned a 77/22 that used the same mags , very accurate - wish I still had it 😞
