RUGER 10/22 FACTORY 25 ROUND 10/22 MAGAZINE

 

Nobody will ever accuse Ruger of moving quickly. It’s only taken 47 years for Ruger to introduce a 10/22 magazine that held more than 10 rounds. Today RUGER announced the BX-25, a Ruger designed 25 round magazine. I look forward to testing one of these magazines once they become available.

It’s refreshing to see the once most anti gun firearms manufacturer has finally embraced ALL FIREARMS including the ones Bill Ruger SR  despised such as AR-15’s, 1911’s and of course magazines over 10 rounds.

HARRIS BIPOD HBRMS Showed Up Today

I ordered the HARRIS BIPOD HBRMS 6″-9″ on Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday. You cant beat that for service. I also ordered the #6 sling stud adapter at the the same time I placed the bipod order. This adapter allows you to install the sling stud in the Bell&Carlson stock T-Slot channel.

I has one reservation going in and that was whether or not the 6″-9″ was the correct working range for the bipod. I can now say it was in fact the correct choice. Ill get some pictures this weekend of the 10 22 with the bipod in place.

Today my BELL & CARLSON ODYSSEY STOCK FOR RUGER 10/22 showed up at the office. I was very pleased as the stock is much nicer in person than internet pictures would lead you to believe.

A few test fits with the CLARK CUSTOM RUGER 10/22 BARRELED ACTION revealed that some minor fitting of the stock will be required. There’s some stock material interfering with the barrel clamp and the barrel is touching the stock near the end. No big deal.

Finally got to take some pictures of the CLARK CUSTOM RUGER 10/22 BARRELED ACTION. The pictures are mostly of the receiver to show some of the details. The BELL & CARLSON ODYSSEY 10/22 STOCK should arrive Monday so progress will continue shortly.

My 10/22 Stock Choice for the Clark Custom 10/22 – Bell & Carlson 2033Odyssey Target Stock

I would have preferred an Anschutz style stock but being left handed my choices were very limited. I ended up getting a BELL & CARLSON ODYSSEY from Stocky Stocks for substantially cheaper about $100 than anywhere else. Bell & Carlson is typically a moderate quality product at half the price of it’s nearest competitor McMillan.

If by some chance you have arrived at this website from a link at Rimfire World or Combatrifle.com, you will know that it’s common knowledge that I love the RUGER 10/22 and have been contemplating a DO IT YOURSELF 10/22 project for some time, but I have had a difficult time deciding what I wanted to do. My goal was to do something a little different but not insanely expensive. It would be effortless to order a complete 10/22 from the likes of VOLQUARTSEN for about $1200 and call it a day. The other day I was browsing the Brownells website, and I stumbled across a name in guns that I had forgotten about in recent years. That name is Jim Clark of Clark Custom Guns. Jim has a reputation for outstanding work on everything from 1911’s, Smith & Wesson Model 41’s, Smith & Wesson revolvers, AR-15’s, and you guessed it, the RUGER 10/22.

Brownells is offering several variations of  CLARK CUSTOM GUNS RUGER 10/22 BARRELED ACTIONS. The differences between the models are as follows:

  • Target – Plain, Blue, .920″ Diameter 21.5″ long
  • Target – Plain, Stainless .920″ Diameter 21.5″ long
  • Target – Fluted, Blue, .920″ Diameter 21.5″ long
  • Target – Fluted, Stainless, .920″ Diameter 21.5″ long
  • Hunter -Fluted, Blue .920″ Diameter 16″ long

All models feature:

  • Heavy Contour Lothar Walther Barrel
  • Competition Trigger Job
  • Trigger Stop
  • Weaver TO9 Scope Base
  • 1/2″ Group Size @ 50 Yard Guarantee

At this point, I’m leaning towards the TARGET STAINLESS with the FLUTED BARREL. The FLUTING adds $65 to the price, but I think the weight reduction will be worth it.

The CLARK CUSTOM GUNS RUGER 10/22 BARRELED ACTION will need to be bedded in a stock, and I will need to research those aspects of the project while saving money for the project. In the future, the site will have a static page devoted to this project for visitors to follow along.

Tactical Solutions X-Ring .22 Rifles

 

Tactical Solutions X-Ring .22LR

Tactical Solutions X-Ring .22LR

Last week I got to handle a Tactical Solutions X-Ring .22. The Tactical Solutions X-Ring is essentially a CUSTOM RUGER 10/22

The rifles consist of a Tactical Solutions Predator Stock, Tactical Solutions X-Ring Receiver and Tactical Solutions X-Ring Barrel. The rifle was manufactured and assembled with perfection and the entire setup is light as a feather.
