so whats the problem? Free upgrade

No idea on the triggers. My grandpa used a stone on mine years ago and made it a little smoother. I also installed a vq trigger with the little set screw to get rid of the over travel.

Check out rimfirecentral.com

 

yea i got the trigger with the set screw....
from u mabye
and im not sure about the ss barrel.....with the color combo on the new stock "whenever it gets here" athen a black scope

 

ALSO ANYONE KNOW HOW TO BREAK IN THE NEW BARREL
THEY SAY SOMETHING LIKE 10 SHOTS CLEAN 10 SHOTS CLEAN, 20 SHOTS CLEAN AND ON AND ON AND ON....
MY RANGE WONT LET ME CLEAN A GUN IN THERE....

 

haha maybe, I sold the trigger and bolt buffer.

My gun has a blued reciever and a SS barrel and a black scope. I think it looks fine



no idea on breaking in. I just put mine together and started shooting and had fun. I do need to open up my chamber a tiny bit to help with feeding issues though. Tighter chamber = better accuracy but comes with reduced feeding reliability. I just need to find a happy medium

 

Kidd triggers are regarded as some of the best out there, kinda spendy. If you have remote skills with basic hand tools you can do it yourself, however, if there's any doubt in your mind don't attempt. Search on Rimfirecentral.com for DIY trigger job, follow instructions closely. As stated before, there a metric fuck ton of info on that site about any rimfire, especially the 10/22.

 

YEA I DID A POLISH JOB AWHILE BACK ON IT.... BUT FOR $80 I WAS WONDERING IF IT WAS WORTH IT?

 

10/22 back together. Test it out this weekend. Woot!

 

The way I cleaned mine back in the day was actually cleaned it real good before I even shot it. As some manufactures coat the barrels with grease, so you want to clean that out first. Then I shoot once then clean again, as it heats the dirt up in the barrel enough to get more out. I do one shot for the first 10 to 15 shots then you should be good to go. But since you can not clean at the range I would recommend using Sweets 7.62 cleaner from Australia. Damn good cleaner and clean the hell out if it before you go shooting. Then I would say only shooting no more than 100 rounds before you clean it again. The rifling can have some rough spots in it and your accuracy wont be real good until you get this cleaned out.

 

thank you for the info rep to you

 

You may be experiencing barrel droop, causing your feed issues.

 

And never put a rod in the muzzle end of any gun while cleaning. Use a Otis system or a BoreSnake. Or, you can drill a cleaning hole in the back of your receiver, right at the height of your bolt pin or buffer. I have all my 10/22s drilled, it's completely hidden when installed in the stock.

 

fix for this?

 

Yeah, there are some custom V blocks that provide some additional lift/support for your barrel. Let me find you a link.

Read through a few of these threads and see if any match your problems.

 

Just ask them, they know you have to run a swab after each shot to break a barrel in. All the ranges around here have signs saying no cleaning however they will allow you to run a bore snake or swab in order to break a barrel in correctly

 

i was reading about this....might just do that today
my new barrel and stock should be here today

i will ask never did because of all the hugh signs stating otherwise....
its a police firing range

 

should i get the 6-9" bipod or the 9-13"

 

Depends on your needs.

 

this look legit?
just installed the green mountain fluted barrel in a blaster stock
barrel was abitch to get in had to use a block of wood then used the v block screws to slide it in the rest.....
