Custom 10/22 pictures

I've had a few over the years. In the future I'll be switching over to Volquartsen exclusively. Already made the switch on my Open rifle.

The TacSol on top in the first picture was my main for a long time. No idea of the round count but well north of 100k. I wore out two barrels and I think somehow I've managed to kill the receiver. No matter what I do it won't run for me anymore. After all that service, I can't really complain.

That's impressive! I don't think I've ever worn out a barrel let alone 2. Do you shoot competition or just love practicing?
 
Did you polish and hone the internals yourself or did you have someone do it for you? I've thought about doing it but haven't looked into very much.
I did it myself. It's a BX trigger pack. Just some 2000 grit paper, krokus cloth and oil. Knocked down and edges and made all contact points smooth as I could. Not hard. Just time.

This has a BX trigger group that was sent out to be worked by brimstone. It came back so light that I really don't think it's safe. I keep an extra factory trigger group with the gun in case other people want to give it a try.

I thought the delrin chassis would be cool but Ive had trouble finding an AR grip that works for me with this setup. I need a grip with a beaver tail to extend the reach for my trigger finger but they don't work with this chassis. Thinking about going back to something like a traditional hogue.
 
I started swapping out a few parts in May. It still needs a few things but I've taken it from a 1.25"-1.50" 50-yard to right around .50"-.640" now. Most of the reduction was from swapping out the factory Ruger barrel for a Summit-Precision carbon fiber barrel. I could have chosen a Kidd or Volquartsen but I wanted something less common and their price with military discount was too hard to pass up.

Maybe adding something like a Houge Handall sleeve to the grip will help.
 
Anyone try out the Enoch Industries chassis? They look sweet. Contemplating one for my first 10/22 build.

I'll be shooting this tomorrow in the NC State Rimfire Championship at DPRC. Polished internals , Volquartsen extractor , HI viz front and ghost ring rear sights.View attachment 656592

Looking forward to it!

I’m so dang tired I was struggling to put the little Debbie’s in ziploc bags. But, the match is on the ground and ready to roll. Should be a great time.

I’ve been eyeballing on for one of my chargers. A 6” Volquartzen barrel plus the suppressor would be slick I think.

I put a Franklin trigger on that one and not sure if the chassis will work with it. I may need to email them. Worst case I upgrade triggers and move the Franklin over to my takedown charger.
 
I know I’m late to the party but I built this one about a year ago. Mostly volquartsen with a Brn22 railed receiver and a custom triangle barrel.

Never to late! That brn22 receiver is the same one I use, it's a shame they stopped making them they were a great deal. Love the triangle barrel by the way, I've never seen one like it!
 
10/22 volquartsen bolt and trigger, tac-sol barrel. The charger has a pmaca chassis, volquartsen trigger, Kidd bolt and barrel. I took the no charge tax stamp to sbr it

I've got a beavertail cheap rubberized grip I lopped the beavertail off if you want to give that a go.
 
@NCLivingBrit I wouldn't mind giving it a try. Mind sending me a pic when you get a chance?
Yeah, I'll dig it out once I get home. If you don't hear from me by 9ish drop me a pm to remind my senile self. It's nothing fancy, it's a cheap grip with rubber but it's comfy and I already whacked the beavertail off. Prematurely it turned out lol

Been thinking about swapping out this stock for a chassis like the Grey Birch. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Most everything is Kidd now.

Depends on how you shoot it. Is it a bench gun, or are you shooting steel challenge or what?
 
Mainly just target shooting on my property. Would like the ability to use my QD slings.

I'd bet a Titan stock would be cheaper and it would get you the QD sling mounts.

This turd is constantly evolving. I want to run it in a rimfire competition but recently it just hasn't been that reliable. I swapped the bolt with another one I had lying around that's got the volquartsen firing pin and extractor. Went and fired a hundred rounds without a failure. Hopefully it's good to go now.

The vortex prism was swapped for a Burris fastfire2. Installed a ghetto home job pencil barrel and a different grip. The grip is better than the bcm for this application but it still doesn't fit me quite right. I've got another on the way to try out. Also ordered a 1/2 inch tall mount for the fastfire2.

These 10/22's make me.feel like I just can't stop sometimes 😁

I think it’ll be great for the match!
 
As long as I've got the reliability sorted out I think it will be much better than the 15-22 I brought last time.

Last night I polished the bolt and the inside of the reciever a little bit. The action is MUCH smoother. Going to get some more rounds thru it right now.

If it runs good again today I'll test my luck with it at the match.

Put the VQ firing pin and extractor in. I could have deburred and cleaned up the internals while I had it apart but completely forgot about that…. 🙄
Also did the bolt release mod. With CCI standard velocity, this thing is ridiculously fun, and Hollywood quiet!! Bangs steel at 150M with very little effort even with the cheap-o BSA scope
Glass upgrade in the next week or so, and then to sight it in at 100M. I’m not chasing crazy accuracy, but interested to see what this sweetheart can do with decent ammo from a bench rest.
