It’s not a joke it’s just not a good lubricant and tends to get😊 sticky quickly. I don’t use it on anything that ain’t wet. Won’t do much harm In this case as long as he doesn’t use it on the trigger group or ejector.
I think it's a nice bit of kit and good looking rifle for that price point. Did sound a little loud with that shorter barrel, fingers close to muzzle on the buddy bottle. A moderator would solve both of those I'm sure.
Why do you need to clean the dust off for the true oil? And then you using steel wool which is lots of metal dust you don’t want. Usually what people do is use the dust to fill pores in the wood and sand in the tru oil for best protection and a glass hard finish.
i say why the hell bother swapping internal parts,ok first off,we all love and bought,purchased and own the ruger 10/22 why /?? because its a damn good gun,why would you buy a corvette and swap the engine,dumb,pointless,now a set of new custom wheels and some other mods to give it a rumble and hey your there,i am with this guy,i love doing wood work so what he did is really nice and free doesnt cost anything,i want a carbon fiber bull barrel im not into rapid firing or contest shooting,so just for looks basically and i would use the stock parts just like he did,i mean after all thats why we bought the gun,because it works flawlessly ,if you want better grouping,adjust your scope or get a reflex or something.cheers
Truly a beautiful build ,, I can appreciate the stainless tube unstamped it looks so clean , Im currently building something similar Gmac seems to have a very low inventory right now , I check regularly for the parts I want to come into stock , Im a nut for brass so I commonly check the site . I found an unstamped stainless tube from Aliance Hobby, I have a longer barrel that's been polished and a muzzle flip from Gmac , Im taking inspiration from your build and by the way thanks for showing how to put the safety back for me it was the most valuable part or your tutorial. Great work , Much respect 🙏
so you're a left-handed shooter, so what?, it is said that left-handed people are more intelligent than right-handed people, and maybe that is why you made a great video, and me being a right-handed shooter learned a lot from watching it, thank you
Got mine with 22 inch barrel. 7 inch moderator. Trigger job. Valve internal volume increased. Shimmed hammer spring 15mm's. 658fps. Super tight group. Thanks for the video. I used it to familiarize myself at the beginning of the journey.
trying to decide if i should buy this or the stainless steel camo 457. ill be hunting in wet areas. please let me know if the lrp is more accurate and suitable for hunting thanks.
All depends what distance you are shooting. The LRP is a heavy rifle, if you are having to carry it all day long it will become a burden. Out to 50yards I don’t think there will be much difference in accuracy. As a hunting gun, I would probably go for the lighter camo rifle.
Just read a comment on another channel a guy got his 10/22 in 1980 first time he cleaned it was in 2021 after it started jamming now back to working perfect
Paint the receiver, free float the barrel and bed the action. Use a torque wrench to find the best setting for your action screw. Your groups will shrink even more.
Love my little ratty mate. Have you had problems loading pellets into the breach, past the stupid little hex screw? You can buy new washers that eliminate that problem, just in case a multishot mag etc is next on the Christmas list 👍
According to Crosman 2240 schematic diagrams the short end of the transfer port goes to the O-ring and the long end goes to the barrel. I guess it could work either way.
A bit baffled here.... While I really liked the result of your stock refurbishment, I'm not understanding the short barrel for a target gun. Shooting at only 20 yards, I would've expecting your groupings to be a lot better. I've been shooting my standard (as is) Ruger Carbine and my groupings at 50 yards are substantially more consistent. Regardless the gun looks great. If you ever decide to redo the stock plate again, you might want to try spraying the sanded metal with 2-3 light coats of Primer first. I prefer to lightly sand the dried primer with a few swipes of the steel wool and finish if off with 2-3 light coats of the black, instead of one heavy coat. Nice job!
In the UK we can hunt with Rifles that have a 16” barrel. The UK rules are: a section 1 gun must have an overall length of 24” and a barrel length of at least 12”.
