What does it cost to get a 10-22 to shoot good?

I thought they shot good right out of the box?

How high are your standards? You can customize these guns all different kinds of ways, depending on your own personal preference.

Did you check out the topic not far below this one entitled "turning a 10/22 into a tack driver... (advice)"

You can always just buy a 10-22T to start with or add a kit like this one to the standard model if you want to go cheap.

K98 is correct, it all depends if you want moa at 25yds or 100yds. I own one but only use it for grouse and small game. With mini mag I can cover a penny at 25yds with 10 rounds. Other's will spend a fair dollar but get exellent accuracy at greater distances.

For other helpful tips go to www.rimfirecentral.com lots to read and learn. I did some if not all of the DIY tips and it made for a gun thats more fun to shoot than stock, and slightly more accurate than out of box. Have fun!!

The trigger is still terribly heavy. Quickly fixed with a Volq. drop in hammer kit.
 
Like Skeetgunner said, drop in the trigger group, and that will give you a lighter trigger, better for target shooting. I suppose you could go all the way next and mount the expensive scope, target barrel, fancy stock, and spend well over a $1000 dollars on it. Or practice, practice, practice wth the cheap .22 ammo until you get better.

I have the trigger group ($220) and now feel good about my shooting - but can get better, and keep practicing. Do not dismiss the shooting fundamentals - a flinch is still a flinch in a $200 dollar gun, or a $1000 dollar gun.

And have fun!
 
I haven't listed it it yet, but I will be selling a Corelite synthetic stock and a green mountain, fluted heavy barrell in the near future. It weighs as much as the rifle itself though.
 
I just put money down on a 10/22T, I don't want a bench gun, it's going to be a gopher killer, a buddy just has a regular 10/22 with a trigger kit and he does very well with it. I went with the T because I like the bigger laminate stock, and the better accuracy potential. Although the T's are supposed to have a better trigger than a regular carbine I still anticipate doing a trigger job. So it's 479 + another 75 or so, if I get it to gopher head @ 75 yards i'll call it a win.
 
10-22

I have a 10-22 Deluxe (Walnut stock and no barrel band) I bedded the the action and barrel $25, Volquartson hammer and springs $50, Radius and polish bolt and inside of action as well as guide rod $0, Simmons 4-12 AO scope $250. Shoots 1" groups at 50yds. with most ammo and occasionally better with match grade .22's. 2 of my buddies have T's and the trigger is marginally better than mine from the factory but accuracy is superb right out of the box. Better than my 10/22 even after all the mods. Woodchuck/Gopher head shots at 75yds. You bet!!!! :)
