Ruger American vs 10/22

[Rosebud22]

I have both and shoot the RAR more often. Just like the bolt action more than the semi. The RAR is more accurate out of the box then 10-22.

Don't forget you can shoot cci quiets or 22 shorts with the RAR in your back yard.

I have both, and both threaded for a suppressor that is ordered.

THe RAR is for plinking at the range and whacking voles and rats at the bosses farm.

The 10/22 takedown is a sorta SHTF, sorta hunting plinker I can throw in the Jeep when off roading for various tasks.

Get them both.

7) And now the biggie - Brimstone Stage 2 trigger. It breaks a bit over 3#. Everything positive you hear about them is true and it runs circles around the BX.

Great piece of hands on wisdom here. I'll be sending off my 10/22 trigger for this upgrade.

[QUOTE=jfdodge;17982610] Look into the ruger bx-22 drop in trigger, I just put one in one of my rifles and it is a huge improvement over the stock trigger. Attached is a 10 shot group with a out of one of my rifles/QUOTE]

What distance was this group shot at with what ammo?

When .22lr was no where to be seen on the shelf at Walmart, they still had boxes of .17hmr.

I'm that guy who's causing the .22lr shortage, sorry

Of course. I got a little bolt .22lr for my daughter that I plan on shooting shorts or subsonics with. I also live in an unregulated shooting area so if I have a major jihad against the varmints, my .308 is allowed!

it was at 25 yards with cci 40gr round nose. Rifle is stock other than the magpul x22 stock. I don't think the rifle is really broken in yet, I think it has less than 100 rounds fired out of it.

That's a great group, what sighting system?

It has a nikon p-rimfire 4-12x40 scope on it. I'm really happy with that scope, and I think I can drop.the group size down with some of the tips I found on YouTube.
