    barrel questions

    I have the ruger 10/22-usst which is the olympic shooting team replica.
    stock has been changed out to hogue rubber overmold. (got a good deal dont wanna ruin the stock)
    My question is how good is the stock hammer-forged target-crowned barrel in 20".
    It shoots very accurate but does anyone make a barrel that shoots better, I am trying to turn this thing into a real tack driver and its very good now but I have not compared it to a volquartsen or shillen.
    Lets hear some feedback, is it worth it or are the stock ruger target barrels good enough

      People might not have any feedback on that particular barrel because it was a special rrun by Ruger so we wouldn't know if it's an ordinary Ruger barrel or something special.

      Just about any aftermarket barrel will be better than a stock Roger barrel. The factory OEM barrels probably cost Ruger $10 or so if they don't make them in house and if they do the quality check is most likely noting more than a check to see if they fit and they look straight. The aftermarket barrels will be better also because the chambers are usually cut closer to tolerance.
