...even in 2020.

I say we all post pictures of our Ruger(s) here on 10/22.

So dump your last $100 that big-money build, or stitch together that half-done FrankenRuger, or go buy your first "10-22 starter kit", etc.
Whatever you have to do to get ready to post some cool stuff on the big day.

Personally, I'm hoping to see some early ones, and some true custom rifles, like the Germanic-stocked one posted on the Fire around a year ago.

This one did sub .5 at 50 yards but came out a little heavier than I wanted.
Still woulda kept it if the stock had some angle to the grip. Too vertical for field work.

Got a take off plain sporter bbl from SAP (to maybe put on the FG I had).
It's just laying on a shelf.

LGS got a 242 prefix in, looked clean (alloy trigger housing) but a big scratch on top of receiver. Went over today to check on it.

Thought for a minute, about making a light hunter w that bbl..............if not for the scratch

I still like a heavy barrel 10/22 in the cheap Hogue stock best, for all-around use. The A5-type of patterns look good for prone but I've never put a 10/22 in one.

Yesterday was 09/22. Are we supposed to wait a month, for 10/22?

I really like these two and have no desire to change anything about them. Both have farkles from KIDD. Triggers, buffers, guide rod, handles, etc. And rails with 8-32 screws.

Top one has a Clerke barrel that I chopped and crowned. Bottom one is a Walmart special. Still trying to get back another Walmart special from a buddy that I sold it to.

This one? Probably the most beautiful 10/22 I've ever seen.

This one was kinda odd.......

factory checkered sporter

[Linked Image from i.ibb.co]

and a standard from the same year
.

The sporter shot well, the standard was horrible. Did better after some stock work (had extreme tip pressure, proly compressed at action screw)......but still not good enough to be a hunter IMHO

Sold mine since it shot nice patterns. Not interested in spray and pray. No way was I going to retain an aluminum receiver and throw everything else away to be replaced with 1K in parts. Substituted an Anschutz.

Replaced the wood stock with a Ruger synthethic one and installed a Volquartsen action kit.

It serves as a knock around utility 22 LR and I have no complaints. [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Ran across a birch or beech sporter stock stainless one with a v7 on it in a pawn shop. Next thing you now I put GM barrel, kidd and volq parts in the bolt, brimstone teir 2 trigger, bedded the action. Rustoleum'ed the stock. Just something different.

Also got bored in the shop and messed around with a factory barrel band stock.
