Ruger 10/22 Modders/Owners Thread

This isn't mine unfortunately, mine has a green mountain barrel and Houge overmold

This is one that one of the guys on rimfire centra made out of brass in a home machine shop. This picture doesn't show the wood grain well, but shows everything else on the rifle. The only problem with it is that it isn't in my gun safe

 

I followed that guys build. It would be awe to have those skills and tools to do stuff like that!!!

 

It was awesome to watch him make it, I'm in school to be a machinist, I hope that I can have that skill level one day

 

Bought my first long rifle today- of all places at Big 5 Sporting Goods. Got a Ruger 10/22 with synthetic stock and stainless steel barrel. Finding .22 ammo in my town is near impossible, so I set off to the internet- found a 500rd brick for 60 bucks before shipping. Sheesh, plinking is sure getting expensive! I'm excited about eventually modding it up. Will have to read through this thread for ideas

 

That. is. freaking. sick.

 

same thing around here, hard to find unless your in line at academy tuesday and thursday morning…

thats expensive for 500rds!

 

Finally finished refinishing/restoring my 68' finger groove sporter. This is a pretty old version of the 10/22 (only six digits in the serial number). It sports a Adams&Bennet 22 inch barrel, a mix of Volquatzen and Power Custom trigger parts/hammer/sear. Just cheesy Simmons glass for the moment, I'll upgrade that soon.

 

Mine

 

That's a beautiful rifle you have there

 

Thank you kind Sir. Here is my other sporter, the one that was in the Ruger 10/22 Design Contest. I only placed 6th, but was tickled just to be mentioned. Plus, I did win a new Ruger SR 7.62.

 

sub'd for future build

 

Kidd Custom 10/22 with TacSol fluted barrel.

I am an idiot...spent more on this damn .22 than either of my ARs....

 

Always good to put it to use for what I built it for.

Anybody know someone who wants to get rid of a receiver and/or trigger group? I still have the stock barrel and stock laying around. It would be fun to have another 10/22 to throw in the tractor or barn if I stumble across a receiver and trigger for the right price.

 

Yeah, I've got five of them that fall into that category!!!

 

Keep an eye open over on Rimfirecentral.com there are on there for sale fairly regular.

 

It's addicting as hell. Too bad America has gone full retard buying all the ammo up. Oh well. I have a decent stash laying around....for now.

 

You missed mine by about 3 weeks. I sold those two parts when I got my Kidd replacements. Rimfire Central is good for sure. Armslist also.

 

That's a great idea! I should have thought of that earlier.

The TacSol barrel left the front end a little light for my tastes. Pulled a bi-pod off another rifle today and through it on. Feels a bit better to me now, not that it was particularly bad in the first place. I think I'll have to pick up another bi-pod.

 

Anyone want to sell their black stock for the ruger 10/22. I picked up a wood stock one last week but want to see if i like the black better.

 

My wife told me she is thinking about getting into shooting small bore competitively. Anyone need a new kidney? I am probably going to get her a stock 10/22 and upgrade it as needed if she really gets into it. Does anyone else here shoot small bore?
