This is so awesome. So many others install a new barrel, stock and/or other "upgrades" without a base showing how the original gun shot in the first place. Can't compare without proof. Nice work!

Got you a Squirrel Killer now Buddy!

Simply awesome. The attention to detail + knowledge is amazing!

Very nicely done video. And I have seen some nicely redone 10/22 projects. But I haven't seen any 10/22's that could compete well in the benchrest matches. If they could shoot a group like what has been shown here. There would be.

What we didn’t see was what ammo was used in the shoot after the work was completed. Was it the same Tac-22 or something better? Ammo can make a huge difference in performance.

Awesome video

Mark dye looking good ol buddy. 1995 seems like a lifetime ago..that wook stock looks interesting..Good to see ya.

Amazing. Far beyond my means I'm sure, but really liked all the skill shown and a great improvement.

so correct me if I'm wrong, but everything was replaced other that the bolt and the trigger group ? and you modified them ? it feel to me that you did not modified the riffle to be more accurate, you just gave him another one.

Nice build!

I've almost completed a build similar to this. Bolt is stock and just radiused but that will be done shortly. I'm already shooting dime sized groups at 50 yards.

I did my own rebuild om my 50th anniversary with ruger stainless target barrel and magpul 22 hunter stock and trigger parts using bushnell ar 22lr scope shots nice

Skip ahead to time index 19:07. See how the bolt bounces back and forth after the shot? That'll be pulling the next round in and out until it settles. Can that be eliminated or reduced? Would an aftermarket recoil buffer pin reduce that? Great video!

The bolt buffer only works on rearward travel, not forward, a stiffer recoil spring would affect bolt bounce.

could you put a list of parts used on that build? I love the way it turned out...and am thinking about upgrading my current gun.

I rock my 10/22 pretty much stock. Synthetic bolt stop is all. 3-9 scope and I can write my initials on a target!

Got a stock 10/22 that came with that same bull barrel. Would love to have that tune-up. That's beautiful!

I shot groups as little as that with my Remington 597, with Harris bipod, Volquartsen trigger, laminated thumbhole stock and 6-24x50 scope. With SK rifle match ammunition.

Sorry about your laws. Suppressed rimfire is probably the funnest I’ve ever had with a 10/22. Nice lookin setup there.

Is that number for that gunsmith? Have a 22 I'd like to have the barrel & bolt worked on like they did yours. Big improvement on the 10/22. Also been a year. How many rds you fire though it? Like to see a fall 2023 tests on CCI SV, Tac 22 & the CCI Mini Mags HP.

I have a few projects I would like to have them work on. It is hard to find a good gun smith

Worked on my own bolt. Lapped the face with 600 then 1,200 diamond flat stone. Went slow, only stroked one direction careful and easy, feeling it mate first before moving it. Did the same on the top, bottom. Rounded the back to a nice radius. Breech chamber polished very fine. Aftermarket bolt catch, firing pin, extractor and mag release also plunger. I can't alter the barrel like they did, good info. The factory charging handle is a joke though, swapped that out. That stock is pretty slick but a custom receiver would be the way to go with a rear stock screw.

WOW your video is WAY COOL. I LOVE 22lr rifles and pistols. I've got a POSSIBLE project that I would like to know the guys at that Community college gunsmithing classes could HELP ME with a VERY NEAT INTERESTING old PRE-WWII commercial German Mauser. It's chambered in 7mm Mauser (7X57), it has a KRUPP barrel, twin set triggers and all MATCHING NUMBERS. The problem is that the end of the barrel on the inside of it was messed up. Can the end of the barrel be counter bored? The damage appears to be only about 1" depth maybe a little bit more. I'd like to RESURRECT it, be a shame to let a POTENTIALLY GREAT rifle not be fixed. I'm sure if it could talk it would have INTERESTING STORIES to tell.🤔😯😳😮‍💨

1. When grinding the OEM bold face was the face square with the rest of the bolt? 2. On the barrel recrown & the settings the tenon back did you have to machine the extraction slot? 3. When using the OEM bolt what about pinning the front of the bolt to prevent vertical striker pin walking up and down. OEM bolts are staked on top of bolt. That being said it's the best hands on 10/22 I have seen to date & I'm pushing 70, had My 1st at 10yrs.

@markdye3275

1). The face wasn't square, and they usually aren't. 2). Yes, the extractor slot needs to be deepened after shortening the tenon 3). We have pinned the firing pins on some, and it does seem to make a difference. The bolts are relatively hard and difficult to drill.

When you grind down the face of the bolt, what did you do to the extractor claw (???) Now your extractor is further ahead of the front edge of the cartridge rim. How about the slot in the barrel for the extractor (???) What did you do to change that as well (???) I saw no discussion about the ammo used, before, or after.

I'd like to know that myself. However he didn't do anything to the primer pocket face in the bolt so it shouldn't change the extractor claw grasp on the shell rim. I'd like to know if anything was done to the shape of the X-claw or the X-claw slot in the barrel. Good questions

@markdye3275

The extractor slot has to be recut after shortening the tenon. The video just did not show it. The final groups were shot with SK Rifle Match.

They cut the breach face down but I didn't see anything done with the extractor channel? Must have to file that down so the extractor can still grab the rim? Or are they not worried about extracting live rounds since they are probably getting stuck into the lands anyway?

Nice groups .... To me though concerning the bolt they should have locked down the firing pin from jumping around which stock Ruger bolts are famous for that nor did they say anything about checking the firing pin for proper length or for proper ignition .... And something that doesn't affect accuracy but is a neat little trick is they should have beveled were the bolt handle goes into the bolt for ease of maintenance for taking the bolt out or putting it back in.

Let's do a Person/Caswell hunt! We have the places for it!

The only reason these people don't have long hair is because they work with rotating shafts, or it naturally occurred, or the long-haired ones don't work there anymore because they got great gigs, or there was a nuclear powerer-plant accident and it's radiation poisoning. Could still be a magic space wizard, though. I've still got the 10/22.

I do this, no need to set the shoulder back, for some reason they all insist, same thing with Clark, leave the shoulder alone, if anything it improves feeding. The 10-22 headspace’s on the rim.

It's a Sitka Celsius Midi jacket.(Looks like it's out of production but can be bought from different sites on the web.) The Camo is "Optifade Elevated II" It's a great jacket.

My kids bought it for me so I wear it and I like it but typically this is way above my price range.

Sorry! Guys...But I've got both..The 10-22 Ruger and the CZ512 in a 22wm. I don't even use the 10-22 anymore 😕 The CZ is way better gun.

You guys should have modified the factory barrel. Lets see what you guys can really do, and that would have been good proof. Anyone can slap a heavier barrel on from a majority of different suppliers/manufactures and get better groups than a bone stock Ruger 10/22 barrel. Also wondering if the customer wanted you to change his see through rings? All the hand fitting and polishing, like the trigger work would be expensive, if having someone like you do it. A person would be money ahead to just buy a Volquartsen target hammer and trigger kit for $100.00, rather than have you mess with a factory trigger. You should get a before and after weight on this build, and ask him how it compares out in the squirrel hunting fields after a day of hunting. Also, total cost on this build should be mentioned. I'm pretty sure its going to be spendy. That stock is overrated for a 10/22. A Magpul Hunter X22 would have sufficed, and it would have cost $400 less. In the world of 10/22's, you can go unnecessarily overpriced, or you can keep costs down, and end up in the same fork in the road, in terms of accuracy. No mention of ammo used in the rifle after the build either. A lot of wool being pulled over the eyes here guys.

Kidd makes the best trigger group, he did shorten the chamber on the heavy barrel, he would’ve gotten similar results with the factory barrel. What I don’t agree with is setting back the shoulder, not necessary, since it headspace’s on the rim and that is adjusted by modifying the bolt, I would’ve done things differently.
