r/1022

OP was removed had my toes in the the pic 🤷‍♂️..

Is this a decent can

A bit over a year and a half ago I decided I wanted to pick up a new 10/22 to play with and teach the kids. I found out about Appleseed around the same time and after getting a new 60th anniversary 22 moved to Idaho and was just totally busy all year. I put it together about 3 weeks ago. Shot maybe 150 rounds through it and took it to the event this weekend.

I haven’t shot a rifle at all in probably 20 years honestly. I shotgunned a lot as a kid and did some rifle hunting but never really had any training as far rifle marksman ship.

The class was fantastic, the instructors, the history, the format, were all great and you could tell some these guys were just as excited about the history as they were to shoot.

I quickly improved on my form and setup. I didn’t think I was gonna make it but I managed to just barely score a 210 and get my patch.

I’m actually pretty proud of myself and can’t wait for the next event I attend, maybe with the kids and hopefully a pistol class with the wife.

Huge shoutout to the instructors at the CDA event this weekend! Good work and thank you!

I always thought the 39A Golden Trigger looked pretty cool, so I wanted to do the same on my 10/22.

I melted brass and cast it in a sand mold. I filed it, cut a slot in it and drilled the two holes on my manual mill, and the mounted it in the trigger assembly.

It works! Now I want to pull it back out and give it all the detail work of polishing it up.

Can anyone recommend an extended mag release that hugs the trigger guard better than what I have now? It got the job done last weekend but I accidentally hit it several times due to how low it hangs.

Wanted to share an optic I’m testing out on a 10/22z Holosun SCS direct mounted with a plate from Armadynemfg.

For this rifle, I wanted ultra light and simple, shooting out to 100 yards or so on plates, cans, whatever. Nothing super precise. Plate was like $40 to my door and I already had a spare SCS in used so I figured it was worth a shot.

I have Armadynemfg’s Defender CCW plate to hit I didn’t like the optic. Also have a Vortex HD 2-7 Rimfire if I don’t like the simple dot after some time. We will see how it plays out!

Grew up with Marlins and I’ve slays wanted one so after a bit of searching I found this unit.

All rounds would feed and chamber fine, but about 1 in 10 rounds simply wouldn't fire. This happened 4 times. The charging handle was hard to pull back on those rounds, so I'm wondering if something got lodged in the receiver? After manually extracting the round, subsequent rounds chambered and fired fine. Extracted rounds looked normal, but had no hammer strike.

Found one at my local store and snagged it up, stock feel a little short though. Thinking going with a red dot for this build. Anything else needs to be replaced or is this really good out the box?

Has anyone bought the ITA 4.2 red green dot sight from ruger it says it’s compatible with the 10/22 but has anyone actually tried it. Just got my first 10/22 looking for a decent red dot

Receiver got out of waiting period limbo and I was able to put everything together.

This is my second 10/22 and it was a blast to put it together with my own spin on things. It's not very bougie but it is a step up from my first...and now I have two!

Went with a purple receiver as it's my wife's favorite color and I'm thinking it'll make her love going to the range just that much more.

Back in the 90’s Christensen made aftermarket barrels for the 10/22. I always wondered why they stopped. But I’m happy with both rifles - just shot some steel with the carbon to test it out.

All of the 10/22 variants really confuse the heck out of me. I’ve been looking for a 10/22 with threaded barrel for quite some time, but there are so many options I’m feeling the choice paralysis set in.

Is this “exclusive” deal at bass pro a good deal?

What should I look for specifically when buying a threaded 10/22?

TIA.
