OK, I am looking at options for a 10-22.
Right now, it is stock, other than an extended magazine release a forum member sent me.
I have heard of a couple changes to make the rifle A) more accurate B) more reliable C) more usable. What I don't want to do is build an incredibly expensive .22 target rifle. What I DO want is to improve my rifle for the least possible money put into it.
A) Trigger job? Trigger replacement? Sear replacement? Do it yourself? Leave it alone? Firing pin? Other? Again, think the least invested for the most gained.
A) Tech sights look good, but I want a fiber optic front. Or do you think a fluorescent painted dot on the front sight will do it? Right now, the black stinks out loud.
B1) I sometimes have jams. I think it is not ejecting properly, and then blocks the next round from feeding. Is there an extractor or ejector or something which fixes this? Again, think the least invested for the most gained.
B2) What lube to use? Where? How often?
B3) Bore snake, or cleaning rod? The cleaning rod is easier, but just wondering, as bore snakes are popular. I just don't like the idea of putting that into the washing machine.
B4) Do you folks find more powerful ammo results in better reliability? I have had great success with Velocitor, but it is expensive. I wish they sold it in bricks.
C) What am I missing? I plan on a sling, but not until some of the other stuff is sorted out, and I may want to check some out first.
Thanks.
