Ruger 10/22 minimum barrel length

[VanMan]

how do you find the accuracy with the 8" barrel?

I've only shot it at 15m indoors. I was off the bench here and testing some different ammo. I can do better if I shot off sandbags, but wanted to get in some practice with a sling and off my elbows.

a Dlask 8" barrel on a TacSol stock was 26.5" I ended up putting on a linear comp to keep the muzzle blast off of the front of the stock.

You're measuring wrong in your case,the OAL is measured from the butt to the end of the forearm,not the end of the barrel.

The AR15 preceded the M16, and therefore can not be a variant of something that came after it...

Yeah but:

Restricted Firearms
Former Restricted Weapons Order
1 The firearms of the designs commonly known as the High Standard Model 10, Series A shotgun and the High Standard Model 10, Series B shotgun, and any variants or modified versions of them.

2 The firearm of the design commonly known as the M-16 rifle, and any variant or modified version of it, including the
(a) Colt AR-15;

I have a Dlask 8" barrel, it is indeed legal on my non-folding stock.

At the time, I was actually considering cutting down the front of the stock to match the barrel to keep it from getting scorched. I ended up putting on a linear comp from Dlask.

For comparison, I just shot my CZ 455 tonight and I find it’s a lot less sensitive to ammo selection
