giving the 10/22 a facelift
the OEM walnut stock was a second anyway so i decided to take a crack at some modifications. more of a learning experience than anything else though i did need a drop in the buttstock. with no actual woodworking machinery other than some sanders and a drill press this is tough stuff to get right.

slapped it together so my brother and neice could play with it this weekend. still trying to decide on the finish. i wanted a flag theme but there's not a lot of stock to work with.

thanks buz. it was more or less a learning thing. no aftermarket parts, all "hardware store" components. a few fit and finish issues as well as the pretty totally square end results. i wanted to learn the process before i jumped on a pro built BR stock. that, and to see how far i could take a factory gun up against the real deal bench rest guns. so far,, pretty damn competitive. it's amazing what the little 10/22 can actually do at 100 yards.

go from the receiver even if you have to use a cantilevered mount. everyone i talk to says to leave the barrel alone. (harmonics). play with pressure pads on the barrel as well. the 18" or 20" Green Mountain barrel is a very good foundation. that and a couple other mods turned my 25 yard patterns into a 100 yard pattern.

won't mention the forum but some douchenozzle when given the opportunity to judge this build as a Super Stock, Super Sport Heavy, Ultimate or Tactical actually chose tactical. what in the hell ? Bitch,,,, i got "tactical" and this ain't it. these are the asswipes we should fear.
