Re: .920 barrel on 10/22 ???
Also found this one, and it says for Standard barrel. I'm assuming that this would be the one I would want.

Is the .921 barrel worth the upgrade, if that is even what it is?

We set up a carbon fiber .920 on a plastic(?) stock to get the weight down for the kids. Both were of the less expensive variety and work good.
Re: .920 barrel on 10/22 ???
.920 being that the stock inlet is for a .920" diameter barrel. So the stock is already inletted and for a large heavy barrel. If you have a heavy/target/bull barrel style, then you would need to get this one. If it's not, then the channel would just completely swallow up a standard barrel, and make it look odd.
Re: .920 barrel on 10/22 ???
All of the popular after-market target barrels for 10/22 are .920 in diameter.
If replacing a standard barrel you will have to either buy a new stock (to fit the .920 barrel) or sand the existing barrel channel (labor intensive!)
These stocks for .920 barrels are well-loved

and available in pink (this is the same one you linked to , yes?)

Boyds has a lot of nice offerings for those. I would, however, bed it and float the barrel if you get a new .920 bull barrel.

The heavy barrels sit steady off of a rest as well as off-hand......as long as she is big enough to heft it.
But.....I propose this: Why not just duracoat it a nice pink or pink camo and then add a better 10/22 trigger?

Ordered her this stock a while ago after doing a lot of shopping. She will love this big time.

If I was going to get a better trigger Lycan, what would you suggest? And what are the benefits of doing this?

You should go over to rimfirecentral.com and look at the 10/22 threads and tips and tricks. Awesome info there.

Wow, thanks. Who knew you could do so much and make an 22 look so cool. The kid and I will have a good time with the 10/22's. Make hers look mean and cool, and maybe fix mine up to shoot really well (and still look cool ;))
