Stock for 10/22

[Atlast357]

Building a 10/22 for mostly target ( fun ) work.
Want to get a wood stock for it.
Letting you all know I have an ad running in Market Place Accessoiries
for items to trade. Simmons scope, Lee primer tool.
Any thoughts

Lots of wood stocks out there. I would suggest you take your time and decide what kind of target shooting you enjoy. Off a bench? Prone? Standing? Sitting? I have built some real nice and accurate rugers with thumb hole stocks. I have found I enjoy off a bench shooting more fun. My thumb hole stocks are now in the hands of my sons, and they are considering changing to a bench rest flat bottom stock. Check out Stocky's they will build anything you can imagine. Good luck.

Stock selection depends on the changes you'll be making (sporter vs .90 barrel) and the style of target shooting. For example I like an Anschutz style stock for benchrest because the long flat-bottomed fore-end is easy to steady on sandbags. On the other hand I like a Revolution Yukon for standing target shooting, however the Revolution Talon looks like it has potential. Walking around hunting or plinking calls for something lighter like a Revolution Extreme. Note that you'll probably need to bed whatever you choose. 10/22s have a single mounting screw and need extra help to keep them from moving in the stock. Volquartsen makes a kit that uses rubber pads that works pretty darn well - especially while you experiment. Of course the right way is real bedding.

So you made a post to let us know about another post you posted?

Well, the wood stock showed up by a trade that was made with another
Calgunner.
The reason I wanted wood is for the weight and stability over the synthetic stock. When shooting bench and supported by a tripod, I noticed flexing in the grip area of the synthetic ( plastic ) and would of course pull the muzzle off target.
Synthetic is good for its purpose, I guess that would be standing or moving around etc, but for my bench shooting a wood stock is better.
