I've shot a bunch of bulk and some match ammo on paper at 50y and it doesn't seem finicky at all. I've settled on Goldens in hopes of shooting sage rats this spring but it seems to like everything.

If a fella took his time with it, I bet it'd give my Anschutz a run for its money. Hard to beat the Annie but that 10/22 impresses everyone.

First pic shows it as-is now in Dr. Frankenruger stock painted green. Other pic before the chop... with a Hogue and different scope & rail.

Geeze, that is a fat barrel. I got lucky with mine as it has the standard factory SS barrel and it was not finicky either. It liked the bulk federal hp's which suited me just fine. It also liked the federal automatch and American eagles. Here's how it did with the bulk federal hp's:

I ended up selling this rifle to a buddy that needed a good golf ball gun. Now I ran across another older SS 10-22 with the metal trigger group (not the plastic one) for $200.00. I'll likely buy it and throw a heavier barrel and nice stock on it. A guy should never be without a good 10-22.. The 10-22 is as American as apple pie.. wink
