Re: 10/22 Target
Nice looking rifle, i have the target version in stainless, i did the VQ bolt release and polished all friction points, rounded the lower face of the bolt, shimmed the hammer, disconnector, trigger, and sear, put a setscrew in the trigger plunger to adjust overtravel, and two setscrews on each side of the receiver to tighten up the trigger group. Also clearenced the action from the stock (got conflicting feedback about floating the barrel as the target barrel is quite heavy and i didnt want all the stress on the aluminum reciever so i bedded the first third of the barrel back to the takedown screw), also on a sidenote, some of the takedown screws are longer than others so check that its not bottoming out on the barrel, this will change your point of impact when you takedown the rifle unless you get it tourqed the same every time. did the buffer rod also, the only thing i want to do yet is drill the back of the reciever do i can clean from the breach to the muzzle so i wont nick the crown. i know what you mean about the nickel, i think the rifle is capable of that at 75yds but my reticle gets so big at that point that i cant see the bull anymore! didnt want to spend a fortune on a scope for a 10/22 but now that i know its shooting this well i gotta keep going till im the limiting factor, ya know......
