All this talk of shooting 10-22's has peaked my interest in pulling mine back out. Built one from parts and put a Green Mountain fluted sporter barrel on it. That one loves Norma Tac 22's. Gave it to my son for him and kids to use.
The one I still have is one of the old stainless full stock models. Was not a very exceptional shooter until I rebuilt it. Used a Green Mountain heavy fluted barrel on this one and it really came alive. The barrel was one of Green Mountains "seconds" I bought around 2002 and it shoots very small groups with the old Golden Eagle Target. Paid a whopping $80 for the barrel. It does have a lot of Volquartsen parts in it.
