finally finished my 10/22

[lucky4034]

I never get to brag... and this isn't anything super special, but it took me a lot of research and time to finish. Did all the internal work myself including my own trigger job, polished all the metals with a dremel and upgraded the springs.

Its my first rifle and I had no previous experience breaking down or working on a gun before this one.

Not the fanciest or the most expensive 10/22... but she's mine

Nice looking. It isn't clear in your post what you used the Dremel on, so being this is your first work on a firearm, make sure you do some extensive testing of your fire control mechanism to ensure you still have a safe trigger!

 

[lucky4034]

^thanks Dremel was primarily used to polish all the internals nice and smooth, including the bolt

I did mod the the trigger and have shot the hell out of it since.... Its lighter, but definitely not hair trigger light or dangerous.

safety first

Besides... there is a lot more wrong with my shootin than the trigger haha... but I'm getting there.

parts list needed, it looks sharp

 

[lucky4034]

Promag archangel deluxe stock
ER Shaw threaded 16" bull barrel (Huntertown Arms 7.62 can waiting stamp)
Ruger BX-Mag
Cheapy Barska 3x9 scope

Scope is working fine for what I am using it for now, but I'd like to upgrade the scope eventually to a crossfire.... however, I'll be starting my .300blackout build next, so that might have to wait.

You can spend as little or as much as you want...

They are fun, cheap to shoot...Great Job on your build!
I find them sexy all dressed in black!

I actually really like it. I don't have a whole lot to compare it to I guess, but the receiver sits in nice and snug. No extra play anywhere. The barrel has plenty of clearance.

Obviously with the barrel and this stock its better off left on the bipod, but it shoots great. Maybe if I can get out to Kingsbury range, ill try to do a novice range report with it.

what are your 10/22 threads are they 1/2x28 or 5/8x24?

Nice looking 10/22 you have there. Now all we need is a range report on how well it shoots. Looks like you need to go out and shoot it for us.

Looks great, I really like that stock. I'm sure it shoots great with that setup.

Nice rifle!
How do you like the stock? Been thinking about getting one for mine.

1/2 x 28 so Im going to need a thread adapter for the can. (actually purchased the can for .300 blackout, but I think it will work just fine on this .22 as well)

I really do like the stock... again, I don't have any other stocks to compare it except the factory synthetic, but the fit is excellent. It seems ultra durable and the finish is pretty good. For what it is, I think its great depending on what your using it for.

Not the best setup for off hand shooting, but off of a bench or from a bipod, its excellent.

This is a great looking setup!! It's definitely giving me some ideas on what I would want a 10/22 to look like if I make that my next project!

 

[Igotgills2]

Nice plinker. Have been kickin around doing this as well. Still procrastinating but need to get in gear with summer in full swing now, more time to shoot!!

 

[throttletony]

Very nice, I definitely like the all black look in an era of everything stainless.

 

[Shroom]

Love it . You cant go wrong with a beautiful 10/22 like that. My wallet hurts every time I see a nice 10/22 like yours.

This one would be mostly off a bench or w/ a bipod, so it sounds like it should work fine.
Thanks
