My improved Ruger 10/22

[dhuze]

So I bought this ruger 10/22 at an auction.

It turned out to have a .17 Mach 2 barrel on it, which is nearly impossible to find anymore. So, I bought a KIDD Match Barrel with muzzle brake for it.

Then the turrets on the BSA scope on keeps unscrewing instead of adjusting so I replaced it with a Mueller 8-32X44 Side focus Scope. (probably the best bang for your buck inexpensive scope manufacturer out there).

I worked on improving the trigger, but I just can't get it light enough so I bought a KIDD single stage 1.5 pound trigger for it.

The stock wasn't the best shape for Shooting from a bench because of the "pointed" butt so I bought a Titan 10/22 precision stock from Victor Company.

I could shoot groups under 1/2" at 50 yards all day long with quality ammo before the stock and trigger group was added. I will get out to shoot it this Sunday after our club meeting

This is how it looks today.

That was one expensive 10/22 receiver.

They always are.

The stock will go in a different one, The Scope I'm going to send back and see if they will warranty it. The barrel I'm keeping in case someone decides to produce .17 Mach one ammo again.

assault weapon right there

P.S. That looks sharp. Does the integrated brake help tame that recoil? I always find that .22lr recoil destroys my shoulder like a bazooka.

I like to shoot the faster heavier bullets so I need the brake.


I actually got the brake for the look. The next time I'll probably pass on it though.

Nice work. Give us a range report when you have a chance to the accuracy...

I shot it this weekend and other than target #2 I did very well. I rushed the last shot which was on target #2 and opened the group up to almost 3/4". I'll have to shoot it a few more times and settle down with it. Then I'm moving it out to 100 yards.

Dat Group 4, doe.

Nice should do very well at 100... 1/2 MOA is fun at 100 and 200...I'm,happy to just keep under 3 moa at 100-200

Always enjoy seeing the $1,000 10/22s. Love the barrel.

its real purpose is to make cleaning the barrel more fun

Dat Group 4, doe.

If you like that, then you will love this. This is four shots at 50 yards. I think this rifle has some potential.
