    Both make top shelf products. Vol is quite pricey, and I've read some say over on Rimfirecentrel.com there hammer drop-in parts have slipped in quality as of late. As far as complete TGs Kidd is considered the best out there. There are many other brands out there as well, it just depends on what your intentions with the rifle are, and how deep your pockets are. Very good thread on here (10/22 Modders) or something like that, and a wealth of info on RFC.

    Check youtube for trigger job and auto bolt mod. There is videos on how to do both for free. I have done both and they both work like a champ. Just go slow on the hammer and sear so you don't go to far. The auto bolt was super easy. Both of these just mod the stock parts.
    I have a 20" Green Mountain SS fluted Bull barrel I may be selling soon. I am looking at a Tactical Solutions barrel $$$$$ but super nice. If your intrested let me know.

    I, as well, have done many trigger jobs and auto bolt releases. And they are not very difficult. But I can't recommend anyone with out a pretty good knowledge of how the mechanism works in conjuction with other correlating parts to attempt a trigger job. Bolt release, can of corn, and if done improperly, no one is gonna be in a potentially bad situation. Just my thoughts.

    I have a full blown Volquartsen bull pup 10/22, and i absolutely love the thing. I built it from just a 10/22 receiver i found at the pawn shop, now it is worth a little over $1k. It is my close range gopher slayer!! Volquartsen FTW!!

    A Dremel tool has no business around any gun, as far as a trigger job goes. Stones and files only, in educated hands. Go over to rimfirecentrel.com and do a little research. You can send your stock components to a person that knows what he's doing for less money, (and have a great, and safe trigger).

    What do you want out of the rifle? You wanting to mod just to be different, more accuracy, hunting or what?

    "MOST" of the accuracy issues can be achieved with the factory tube, (believe it or not) and trying every type/brand ammo out there. Don't believe me, search "Randy at RPC" on RFC. His reworked stock barrels will out shoot most high dollar aftermarket heavy barrels. Sounds like you want a bad-ass looking gun, I fully understand. I have six 10/22s, all with a different purpose.


    Here's a link.

    I think he means that your goal to shoot under a 1" group at 100 yds is a stretch. You may get 2" or so if conditions are right but it mostly falls on the shooter, not the gun. Trigger control is key. If I was to build another one, I would focous soley on the trigger. The factory barell will usually shoot tighter than an average person can anyway. And as mentioned previously NEVER USE A DREMEL ON YOUR TRIGGER PARTS to remove material, they remove material to fast. If you don't have stones or files you can use a high grit sand paper then after you have finished if you feel the need you can use a felt polishing wheel only to clean up the parts with your Dremel

    GM barrels as a rule, are prolly the very best value out there (IMO). One more time I'm gonna ask, is this gun for hunting, or strictly a bench gun? I understand you want it accurate, but for what purpose? Difficult, (and I swear I'm not trying to be an ass here) but, if your asking this question, it's impossible, for you at this time, (unless your the next Olympic superstar).

    A 22lr can be very accurate. Provided the right barrel/trigger, right glass, and correct ammo, (good .22 ammo can run as high as $10.00 a box of 50). What type of scope are you thinking?

    That's prolly a pretty fair scope for small game, tin can plinking, but it is not a 100yd bench gun scope.

    If it's solely a bench gun you need something in the 16-24 power range, something with a AO, (adjustable objective). I suggest spending the most money you can afford on glass. Good rule of thumb is, spend the same on glass as you spend on the gun.

    Yep, the 209 is before your barrel, ($150ish) and the Kidd trigger group (over $200.00) and what ever stock you go with, (at least $100.00 prolly more). So now your sitting around $600.00, you can get a good piece of glass for that.
