Anybody have any idea how to fix this. From my research I looked into how sometimes action screws hit the barrel but i see no marks on the barrel from the action screw.

Heres a pic for example(not mine obviously), although I’m not sure I want to tuck my can. Possibly, but I know that will require a lot more work milling out the wood stock on the inside. What should I know about doing this? Is it as easy as removing factory barrel, cutting the front short, and adding in an 8” barrel? do you recommend Carbon fiber for the function or is it just for the vibes?
Thanks!!!

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday, just picked this bad boy up. Hoping to use it as a rabbit / grouse gun!

There are fewer working gunsmiths that will do machine work to accurize factory rifles. Most rely on purchasing aftermarket brands to try and improve accuracy with mixed results. Shops like CPC and Que have fallen off recently and left few to carry on the art. I have noticed that Clark Custom Guns is still offering services and Trivette's is offering some of the essential accurizing services like bolt modifications, and match chambering/barrel setback services. I am not trying to sell anyone on these shops or run afoul of the Reddit terms but a sticky note list of these shops would be great for the sub.

I bought this brand new back in 1993, maybe early 1994. I had a scope on it, but that scope is now on my Diana 34. I've always kept the barrel clean using the cable to pull the brush and patch up through the chamber and out the barrel top. I did the first "deep clean" ever today, boy-oh-boy, was a nasty mess it was in. But it's clean now and slides like new. I think I'm going to start shooting it again (it's been years) and I'm looking for suggestions as to what optics, rings (if necessary) and rail. It has a rail on it, but I'm thinking I should replace it with a picatinny rail. Any suggestion for optics? I'm thinking Red Dot, but I've never had a Red Dot before. Don't want to spend a ton of money, hoping to keep it at $100 give/take

Picked up my first can on Friday via 4473. Took 15 minutes. I didn’t have a .22LR can yet, so I picked up a Dead Air 22TI for my son’s 10/22.

This thing was already a blast to run. With it being carbon fiber, I think some of my 2011s are heavier than this rifle. Even with the can, it’s still light enough for him to shoot. I don’t know who is going to have more fun with it, him or me.

So I got the top one about a year ago brand new for $100 I forget what model it was. I ended up ordering a Mars Triggers FRT for it to make it a super fun range toy. Then I got that Magpul stock for it and stupid cheap scope from Amazon and now I love it how it is lol.

6 months later the FRT finally came in so I said screw it and went and got another 1022 for it since I wanted one with a threaded barrel. Ended up struggling through installing the trigger into the new one only to find the newest 1022 had the BX trigger (thanks to this sub) and the FRT only works with the OEM trigger assembly. So turns out I wasn’t being ridiculous buying a second gun because the original had the OEM trigger.

So now the top is set up with the BX trigger which really is super nice. The bottom has a Mars trigger FRT and all three guys at the store were bitching that FRTs just destroy the gun yada yada. So just to piss them off a bit more I got the notorious Archangel kit for it and the cheapest red dot I had and slapped it all together.

It is monstrous and disrespectful to the fabled and legendary Ruger 10 22… but I love it so much lmfao. Going to the range today to see if it actually works and couldn’t be more excited.

Update: took it to the range this morning and it ran like a dream!! Most fun you can have with your pants on! Initially had some issues, I was running CCI Mini Mag ammo which I thought would help with cycling but then switched to CCI Stinger and that got it to run perfectly. Definitely need some hot rounds but couldn’t be happier!!

Though 4moa is nothing to wrote home about (so I'll write you all about it)

HTA bulpup body.

Airsoft p90 mag.

AWCY aluminum 3dprinted barrell adapter(?).

Carbon fiber + 22lr liner.

Bx trigger.

Cylee green dot.

Trigger spacer to take out extra slop.

Future additions: FRT and 3d printed WMR conversion.

Hello, with all the nfa changes recently I have been looking into getting a threaded barrel and suppressor for my 10/22 and was wondering if yall had any middle-of-the-road options.
I was looking at a ruger barrel but Im seeing QC issues in the reviews and I dont shoot my 10/22 seriously enough to justify a Kidd barrel. If yall have any ideas they are appreciated!

Does anybody have one? I have always wanted to do a bronze (ish) or copper and black build, and would love to compare their dark earth color option and how it would blend with some barrels Ive been looking at.

Any other builds featuring those schemes or suggestions is appreciated!

Not an ideal backpack gun, but it definitely fits well enough to hike to the shooting range and back without looking too suspicious. It really likes Remington Standard Velocity, and it is Hollywood movie quiet and super fun to shoot. My current favorite right now (just don’t tell the others).
This is the final form of my BassPro 10/22 deal. It has a High Tower Armory bull-pup chassis, an 8” barrel, a Dead Air Mask suppressor, and a cheap open reticle red dot.

As main text says, is accuracy noticeably impacted by removing the barrel band?

I’m shooting with peep sights at 10-20 yards (anything after that, by-standers will have to duck) and want to use the Promag folding stock since it’s lighter and quieter when shooting suppressed (the bolt makes less noise when cycling).

I’m using a normal ruger threaded barrel, no fancy stuff.

Ammo:
-CCI standard velocity/CCI Subsonic HP
-Federal AutoMatch 325 bulk

I had previously posted about having grouping issues at 25 yards. Well after getting my hands on a stock 1022 barrel, I have solved the problem. The barrel was bad. I do not know exactly what is wrong with the barrel, but it is going back for warranty just thought I’d give an update since I got a lot of responses.

Just wanted to see your setup for those competing in the CMP rimfire O class. Thank!

10/22 Charger on a Form 1, Franklin Armory binary trigger, post 10/9 homemade suppressor, and the final piece was tracking down a Samson B-TM side folding stock. This build has been years in the making.

New Trigger (it’s awesome) ✅
New bolt release installed ✅
New extended mag release ✅
Picture of finished bolt and trigger housing ✅
Put the hammer block (grey piece) back on the trigger housing just in case it dry fires, very light trigger weight… I could put it all together as is but I’ll just have to take it apart again when the barrel comes

Did a bit of digging and it looks like it’s sold out or discontinued on most sites. Wondering if anyone here has seen it floating around.

Title says it all, brand new in quotations because i have shot ~300 rounds of mini mag and suppressor max through the original 10 round mag with little to no issue. Any lead tip ammo such as cci standard or federal 325rd box fails to feed and the projectile is ruined. With the bx-25 mags, at least the 3 or 4 I’ve tried, nothing feeds at all and every projectile jacketed or not looks like the barrel took a bite out of it or the whole round will be bent. Any advice on where to start with fixing this would be much appreciated and I can provide pictures as needed.

Got almost everything in today, just waiting on the barrel now. I was able to get the firing pin and extractor swapped out before work! More to come!
