You can drive to Volquartsen NW of DSM. They make performance parts for the 10/22.
That is interesting about Brownells backorder. Did you send a complaint to customer service?

I agree with supporting the small business too kwg. Good luck on your build. I'm hoping it runs very smoothly, accurately and reliably. Good idea on getting kids interested in shooting too, especially teaching them with iron sights. It seems like more and more guys don't know how to use irons. Even pistol guys are going to optics these days!!!! My wife thinks it's a big deal getting kids involved with shooting but the mothers and father of the grand kids are good with it. Just getting the stars to align and everyone has a day off or an afternoon to get to the range is the biggest hold up. kwg

Seems like you have plenty of time to get it perfected, and make it how you want. One thing I'll say is most times, these 10/22's react very well to proper glass bedding. Or at least all of the ones I've messed with, have responded well to a simple bedding method I use. Exchippy may be right, about his rifles. Some shoot well with a freefloated barrel, and then others shoot better with a supported barrel. You just have to experiment a little.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Hell, just last week they were wearing diapers. Where did the time go ?? kwg
