A high-capacity detachable box magazine designed specifically for the Ruger 10/22 semi-automatic rifle, this accessory typically holds fifty .22 Long Rifle cartridges. Constructed from various materials like polymer or metal, these extended magazines offer increased firepower for activities such as target shooting, plinking, or small game hunting.
The large ammunition capacity reduces the frequency of reloading, allowing for longer shooting sessions without interruption. This can be particularly advantageous in competitive shooting disciplines or when managing varmints. Historically, the availability and legality of such high-capacity magazines have been subjects of debate and regulation in various jurisdictions.
