I just sold this gun, thanks for the info anyhow. My next 22 will be a ruger!
No, please dont buy a Ruger. I would rather be able to hit something than have hicaps, and wth a 10/22, that is exactly what you can't do.
That is not exactly true. Once you spend another $400-$500 on aftermarket trigger, new barrel, new extractor and maybe a new stock the 10/22 is a decent rifle.
Mark
for a bone stock semi auto rifle that is only $249 new I think they are pretty decent. A new barrel at $140 ,trigger at $40 and extractor at $15 will make a pretty damm fine shooting gun and all for a cost of $445 if you sand out the factory stock, oh almost forgot that you can sell the factory barrel for $40 -$50 and the stock for $30-$40. So it looks like you could build a hogue stocked, heavy barreled tack driving 10/22 for about $455 with selling the stock and barrel and have the satisfaction that you did it yourself and the options of the high caps as well
just my 2 bits
For ONLY $455?!?! [insert sarcasm here]
realy dont get what you are meaning ? are you saying you cant do it for $455 cause I can list it , if you are saying $455 is to much show me anouther semi for that price that you can get high caps for , and come on you are not thinking of compairing semi to bolt rifles are you ,please dont say so
I am definately not comparing bolt guns and semis, but to me, hi caps don't make a difference. I can switch a mag.

No crap.
Get a Remington 597, they come with a 30 round magazine and even they are better out of the box than a Ruger.
Really my VTR dident come with a 30 round ,only a 10 . I wouldent say a base model 597 is a tac driver but mabey a little/tiny/teeny bit more accurate than a base model 10/22 . Then again I did have a 597 LSHB as well and the price tag was up around $400 when I bought it and it was very accurate , a little less then a 10/22 build .
gota compare oranges to oranges
picture of it befor I sold it (great gun as well )
