Ruger 10/22

[tatters]

I have a hankering for a new (or prisine new to me) 10/22.. Probably a standard, run of the mill type.. I haven't bought a new one for years, so I'm curious what a good price for one might be.

I'll send the barrel to be accurized and probably install a couple of drop-in goodies, but for the most part I want to keep it stock.

Thanks

PSA had them for $199 a week or two ago. That's a good deal. Look at the Takedown model too. I love mine!

Actually, they JUST put it back up....

$199 is a good price but that model begs for a decent stock. The standard birch stock can be had for around $40 on rimfire central.

Bought a 50th anniversary model at Rural King for a good price. Nice young women working the counter. They knew little about the product but they knew the paperwork, and that was good enough. I knew what I wanted.

Congrats! That is an awesome rifle. I want one myself.

You DO realize you are now obligated to go to an appleseed shoot with it, right?

CSB: I was chatting with a gentleman at the appleseed booth at the NRAAM. In the course of the converstation, this happened:

Appleseed Guy: So what kind of rifle do you have?
Me: I have a 10/22.
AG: Oh, you have a 10/22? Have you been to the Ruger booth yet? Go over there and take a look at the new 50th anniversary model.
Me: Yeah! You mean the one that was designed by that "Gary from Michigan" guy?
AG: Yep. Thats me. I'm Gary.
Me: COOL! Pleased to meet you! Congrats. That's an awesome design!

Cameramonkey...

Absolutely the plan. These old eyes can't see so well. Is a scope ok? I may try a set of TechSights but I'm not sure.

As I recall, they prefer you to use irons, but also teach scope techniques. They understand you may be limited so they just go with the flow. What is more important is the history and the underlying marksmanship techniques. Other than sight picture, there really isnt any difference between the two.

I have a soft spot for the 10/22 in old config.

That is my next buy a 10/22 I can mess with. This 72 year old needs something to pass the time.

Oddly enough..Just a note on pricing. I wanted to pick up an additional magazine locally, and I remember the mags being $19.95 at Rural King when I picked up the rifle. Of course I forgot to grab one while I was there. So... Dunhams and Dicks are closer to me than RK so I stopped in at Dunham's.. $24.99.. Then Dick's....$24.99... So strictly on principal, I went out of my way to RK and picked one up.

Keep hearing about Rural King. Where is the closest one to indy, if there is one close at all?
