GUN TEST: Ruger 96/22 Magnum, lever-action rifle

Pete Moore considers Ruger's only lever-action rifle and finds a very different and potentially better design, that with a bit more thought could have been a contender, instead of being consigned to the scrap heap.

It’s also one of the few one piece stock lever actions. Along with the Winchester 88, Sako Finnwolf, Marlin Levermatic & even the Noble 275!
Great video.

Lovely little gun. Thanks Pete.

Yeah, really sweet, pity Ruger didn’t put a bit more effort into the design, as it could have been a winner. I might see if I can find a S/H 96/44 and do a bit of a project on it. Thanks for supporting the channel.
