Great gun I grew up shooting that gun almost daily, i think we had like four of them in the house when I was at home. Always wanted to bomb one but always had better things to spend my money on.

I have a 10/22t. if your going to get a 50 round clip than I would suggest a target barrel. you'll warp the stock barrel using that clip.
Mine has a 8x42 scope on it and the target barrel on it. Its very accurate. I tried nmot to spend too much on it as it is just a 22.

You can make that rifle into a TACK-DRIVER, you can also buy a .17 barrel for it and also shoot that caliber !!!

HI GRI, You have to match the 22 to the 17 !!! If your shooting 22LR the 17 has to be the same lenght as the 22LR, IF your shooting 22MAG then the 17 has to be the same lenght as the 22MAG.

Is everybody else seeing outrageous increases in ammo prices. Here in Kalifornia, the prices went up about 20% recently! They outlaw 1/2 the fun stuff and make the other half too expensive.

Noooooooooooooooooooo , I had one an it SUCKED , always jambed no matter what brand of bullets , i had 4 different scopes on that POS and it was impossible to sight in even on a bench it just shot everywhere , Only gun im happy i sold in my life

Get a Marlen 60 they are very accurate and tube fed and much much better than the horrible clip design on the 10/22 , I can reload the marlin 3 times before your clips fed on the ruger

chad you are on crack.

I had a marlin and the tube fed design is a PITA, especially if you want to unload it.
If your 10/22 did all of that stuff than it was warped some how. the 10/22 is renowned as one of the best 22s ever built.
My marlin worked and was ok but it was a cheap pile of junk compared to my 10/22
