?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
anyone have up to date experience with this? I don't know why I am interested, but the arrival of a BX-25 mag in the midway box has sparked interest in something to bond with it.
I have a 10-22, in Alaska, patiently waiting for its new magazine.
hopefully someone will respond with tales of woeful unreliability and inaccuracy and dissuade me from getting another gun.

Go for it! Wonderful rifle...as accurate an any 10/22. Get the one pre-threaded and save $120 to send it off to be done.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
Got a threaded one just recently from rjohns94, and it is awesome. Now I just wish I had a small suppressor 'just' for 22 LR. However, my Mystic works from 0.357" diameter on down.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
I have one -- fun plinker --i am spoiled by optics, but the little fiber optic iron sights on mine make it pretty easy to plink with at reasonable distances
For me, the Take down feature is probably more of a "gee whiz" feature, but it is pretty neat nonetheless
But for you, it would certainly be a neat firearm to strap to the snowmobile or go behind the seat of the SuperCub as a campground plinker and small game getter

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
That's kind of the way I feel. I don't "need" a takedown, but it's just plain FUN to mess with them, and for most of us (unless we're professional hunters or competitive shooters or snipers), the whole point of our shooting ANY gun is "fun". . .Streetstar wrote:For me, the Take down feature is probably more of a "gee whiz" feature, but it is pretty neat nonetheless.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
Yes "Gee Whiz" Cool design but I own a couple,have owned several standard 10-22 carbines and never had a reason to need to take one down. Get it and enjoy if that is what you want.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
I have one and it is my favorite version of the 10-22. It is more accurate than my fixed barrel 10-22 and the bag it comes with is really nice and holds spare mags, ammo, even a small handgun.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
That is so interesting - I've heard many people make that kind of comment, and although I've got a couple 'custom' 10/22's I glass-bedded and so on, so far I really DO get the impression that the takedown one we have is at least as accurate, if not more accurate, than the other six or eight regular ones I've shot and/or owned over the years.K1500 wrote:I have one and it is my favorite version of the 10-22.

Why would that be...???

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
Put a QD set of rings on it, a decent scope like a vortex, and add a suppressor.... good to go, and accurate.

Saturday I put 4 25 round mags on a 4 inch steel target at 125 yards without missing. Leupold 3-9. I found the ammo it likes.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
My only complaint with mine is I bought it in the first year - BEFORE - they offered the pre-threaded version! I did pay $130 to have it shortened to 16" and threaded. It is one of my favorites now.alnitak wrote:Go for it! Wonderful rifle...as accurate an any 10/22. Get the one pre-threaded and save $120 to send it off to be done.

Re: ?opinion: ruger 10-22 take-down
Probably unique to my rifle. I shot 12 different brands, 10 shot groups with a bore snake and three fouling shots on my second round of ammo testing and it stayed at the top from my less formal first test.Ysabel Kid wrote:Which is???Tycer wrote:Saturday I put 4 25 round mags on a 4 inch steel target at 125 yards without missing.

Aguila Gold Eagle Match Rifle with the light and heavy rounds removed. About 8% get removed and relegated to plinking.
I've upgraded the extractor and the trigger group.

I also radiused, polished and pinned the bolt so it would cycle the 1080fps rounds reliably.
