    Bought a Ruger 10 22 Target today and will be handing in the sub tomorrow. Lets see how long it takes.

    Last sub only took them five and a half months to process

    The Ruger 10/22 - the gun that won the west!

    I'd love to try the 10/22 Take Down as well but thought this one would be more accurate

    And they are the best of the Ruger 10/22's out of the box.
    I think the trigger is a little better on the target models, nice stock as well.

    Your have to get into the Gallery comp. shooting ASAP now :):):)

    What ever you do don't start to customise it 'cos you can't stop.
    It's like putting a 'Go Fast' stripe on a car before long the car is not what is was.

    The reason I went for this one is so I hopefully won't go down the custom route.

    Speaking of which what is your one called on the licence? it not having any Ruger parts

    "Dlask 10/22", they are the people that made the receiver, and engraved on as such. With a built in 30MOA rail. It cost about the same as a Ruger 10/22. I have noticed that the bolt seems to be a tighter fit and makes a more solid sound when cycling after firing.

    KIDD parts - barrel, single stage trigger set at 1 1/2lb (with a DIY bolt hold open), bolt & charging handle.
    Boyd - Evo stock.
    Hawk - Sidewinder 30 6-24x56 scope. With a zero stop I put on for gallery shooting.
    Bisley butt pad.
    Not much change out'a €2000

    Yeah right, okay... Tell that one to the missus! :rolleyes:

    CliveJ - nice kit. The only thing I have a problem is that maple leaf on a 10/22 receiver - sacrilege!

    She can only find out if someone tells her.

    Don't think he would mind the maple leaf if its giving clover leafs

    And it does clover leaf. I'm very happy with it now.

    Just to say I was out again today with the 10/22 and I am absolutely loving it. Rounds tend to fly very quickly out of the barrel when you have 6 mags for it:D:D:D:D
