I was finally able to put together what I think is the perfect 10/22 for hunting and just general shooting. Not heavy, not tacticool, just a plain ole hunting gun. With the suppressor it balances perfect and so far has been very accurate. The only work was swapping out the parts, opening up the barrel channel, and putting a bedding pad just forward of the chamber area.
