    "They"?

    For sure Ruger does NOT make one. I've also never seen nor heard of one, and I strongly doubt these exist.

    Ramline used to make 12 and 14 rounders (maybe still does), but the higher cap ones didn't run well. You can modify a stock magazine to hold up to 12, and that may help a little bit.

    In GENERAL, extended magazines for .22LR guns are problematic. The rimmed cartridge design tends to make it hard to stack rounds on top of one another without jamming.

    Makers of long (ie more than 10 round) magazines for 22LRs usually have to put a "banana" curve in the magazine, or use various unorthodox designs to get the things to work, and even there, these are often problematic.
