	M96 group of galaxies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The M96 group of galaxies (also known as the Leo I group or simply the M96 group) is a physical group of galaxies in the Leo constellation consisting of Spiral Galaxy M95, Spiral Galaxy M96, Elliptical Galaxy M105, and a number of fainter galaxies.
		This group does not contain the Leo I dwarf galaxy, which is actually a member of the Local Group, making the group's alternate name confusing.
		The M96 group may be in the same supercluster as the M66 Group.

		By the relation obtained for this, the distance of the Virgo and Coma clusters of galaxies could be estimated; one obtains a distance of 18.3+/-2.0 Mpc (60+/-6 million light years) for the Virgo cluster, and of 105+/-11 Mpc (~340 million light years) for the Coma cluster of galaxies.
		The M96 group may be physically related to the M66 group which is roughly at the same distance and situated rather nearby in the sky.

		It is common that dust appears with greater contrast on the near side of a galaxy than on the far side, so this asymmetry indicates that the near side of M96 is on the left in our image.

		The M96 group is sufficiently near to be well within the capabilities of HST to obtain good Cepheid distances, but far enough away that the discrepancy between the short and long distance scales is already significant.
		There is strong evidence that galaxies in the group are gravitationally bound and at a common distance; determination of cepheid distances to late-type galaxies in this group will therefore allow us to calibrate the various elliptical- galaxy distance indicators that have been measured for their early-type companions.
		Thus, although in principle it may be possible to detect the variability of the brightest Cepheids from the ground (if the M96 group is at the lower end of its range) we would not be able to obtain accurate periods and photometry for an adequate sample of variables.

	Biggerhammer.net - M96 Expeditionary Rifle - Review
		The M96 utilizes a rotating multi-lug bolt (similar to an AR15 bolt), and a gas piston surrounded by a recoil spring, connected to the bolt to cycle the rifle (unlike the AR15, which uses direct gas pressure on the bolt carrier).
		The only problem at the end of the days firing was a loosening of the grip assembly, which was easily remedied (this was also exhibited on a second test gun that I fired).
		Much like the SIG 550 and FAL, the M96 bounces fired brass off the portion of receiver directly behind the ejection port; a series of small brass marks was visible at the end of the days firing.
