[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1251549, member: 54178"] Well fellers, my favorite squirrel/groundhog rifle is my [B]Ruger 96/22 mag lever action rifle[/B] with its Green Mountain octagonal barrel. I put the barrel on last year after getting tired or 1 1/2" to 2" groups at 50 yards from the Ruger barrel. It's now 3/4" to 1" capable at 50 yards with CCI 40 gr. plastic tipped ammo, its favorite diet. Ruger has not made the 96/22 lever gun for many years and I wish they would bring it back. They also made it in .44 magnum centerfire to match their revolvers. Cool! My best friend has a stainless Savage bolt action rifle with a laminated stock for a favorite squirrel rifle. It's a good looking piece and a bit more accurate than my Ruger. To me .22 WMR is the best squirrel medicine and good on woodchucks up to 75 yards. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
