Hi, I am new to this board. I am getting a SS Ruger 10/22 with hardwood stock in December. After looking at all the different combinations of stocks, barrels, and other accessories, I have become overwhelmed. To remedy this, I decided to ask you all what your personal favorites were.

I wasn't limiting the topic to any specific use for the gun, but when asked that question, I would have to go with 'c'. I want to use it for small game hunting, and non-competetive target shooting. I will most likely get a cheap 4x15 scope for it at least. I know my first priority is a good bolt buffer, a 25rd steel-lips mag, and a small muzzle-brake.

I would choose a Browning Grade2 lever action for all around shooting

Thank you for the links, Boyd seems to have some really nice stocks at good prices. I still have 2 months to figure out what I want out of this rifle until I actually have all the money put down on it. Whatever stock I get, I know it will be a good tackdriver with the correct parts.

That is a really nice setup, I bet it groups even better too. Looks like you have the Butler Creek Featherweight Barrel, but I am not positive. I must say, that is the biggest rimfire scope I have seen in my life.

I'm holding out for a Zero Shark or Turner Barracuda stock. They look so insanely exotic that I'm not going to try anything else. I'm currently using a butler creek folding stock (hold the flames...it's SMALL) which I'm certain isn't doing much for the accuracy, but I was going for cool-factor/small package at the time.

I might have to buy another 10/22, one for the range, one for everything else.

Since you haven't actually bought the rifle yet you might want to check out the 10/22 Deluxe Sporter if you haven't yet. The stock it has isn't bad at all for a standard size stock unless you already have your heart set on an after market stock. It's walunt instead of hardwood and checkered too. Has a nice hand filling feel to it but not bulky.
Have a look at it at the link below. Forget the suggested retail price of $300 that Ruger lists. It's actually a lot less than that. Probably not much more than $200. I paid a little under $200 for mine new five years ago.
Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot, but I already have this one set on lay-away, it is the nicest one available at my local wal-mart. I have been thinking hard about it, and I am probobly going to get a synthetic stock for it. Either the Butler Creek folding one, or the factory model synthetic stock. Those are really cheap too, only like $50.

Reply Another stock question
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've got a standard model 10/22 with the wood stock. Mainly for plinking and just messin' around. I am wondering if there is any way to mount a sling on this stock? If not, I'd like to get a fairly simple stock that I can mount a sling on. (Actually, I really want to just shoot this rifle a lot at first before doing too much to it!)

Thanks,

NoBite

Michaels of Oregon makes a sling swivel set for the 10/22. Easy to install.

Good luck and welcome to the forum.
