Finally found a 1022 what to do now.

One more thing to put on the must do list now that you have a 10/22 is attend an Appleseed, even if you can only make it one day.

I always do a Volquartsen target hammer and auto bolt release, install sling studs and 1 1/4" swivels, a GI web sling, and Ether Tech Sights or a scope. For a scope, I personally prefer one that is nice and short, since it is hard to get one far enough forward to get proper eye relief on the short receiver with the factory scope mount. Plus I prefer a nice low powered scope for the type of shooting I do with mine anyway.

I really like the idea of the new rail mount Tech Sight rear and a co-witnessed red dot.

Oh, and definitely come to an Appleseed!

I got out and shot it today, had 4 bx25 mags, not a single issue. Used one butler creek (plastic lips) that my buddy has and it is garbage, fail to feed 1-2 times per mag. Its an awesome gun. I probably ran 1000 rounds through it today.

If you plan to scope your 10/22, I'd strongly recommend an aftermarket mount/rail. Ruger's mount is not designed to Weaver/Picatinny specs. I had to torque the snot out of my Warne rings to get them to snug up on the Ruger mount.

Picked up a Power Custom rail for $15 and have no complaints. Even the "avoid-at-all-costs" brands such as UTG and NcStar make decent rails for the 10/22. Anything is better than what Ruger ships the rifles with.

I've got this on my takedown. Good quality and works well as advertised. I don't have any complaints.

If you don't want to go with the tech sights, I have gone with the Williams. It gives you the rail and you can mount optics with quick detach and have the best of both worlds. I shoot optics but I make my kids shoot iron sights. It works great for flexibility.

Get some high cap mags and a good scope and you are good to go.

Volquartsen Exact Edge extractor for improved reliability.
Power Custom Firing Pin (again, improved reliability).
Trigger job or kit (type depends on what you plan to do with it)
Extended mag release (again, type depends on what you plan to do with it)
A bolt buffer is nice (and cheap)


After that, you can go from mild to wild with optics, barrels, stocks, etc. Here's mine with the aforementioned mods, plus a Tac-Sol barrel, custom balanced Revolution stock and Burris 3X9 scope.

She's a beauty!! Well done.

I had the "bolt mod" done to mine along with the tougher buffer and it is so much quieter now.
