[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3965299, member: 15054"] I bought a Brand new synthetic 10/22 Ruger I think it was a couple years ago. On sale at Atwoods in Norman. I shot it side by side against my Squires Bingham 16. And a 22 mag rifle I had and the Squires was more accurate than both and no fail to feed. I tried a few different types of 22 ammo and that Ruger just angered me with jams and bad accuracy. I read I needed to get a bunch down the pipe so the gun wears in. A 22 LR is going to create wear on a rifle and make it better !!!! I do not need that rifle. I traded it off and told the gent that it was not accurate enough for me. Old Model 60 will run circles around it in my opinion. But if you do not care about accuracy and want to buy aftermarket things to make that Ruger better I say go for it. I read about a few mods you can do to them to make them more accurate. Mine was not good enough to hit squirrel heads at 50 yards. You may get a few of them but not all you put the bead on. I used the same scope on all rifles tested. Lot of scope swapping. Nikon scope was used. I am sure some have had great luck with their Ruger 10/22 or there is no way they would be so popular. Unless everyone is brain washed..That could be it. Or maybe I just have the worst luck with that brand. [/QUOTE]
