Hi nice vid, I see the receiver has two threaded holes on the back below the cleaning hole does the receiver come with the stuff to use that rear mounting config? Does the new receiver come with the adjustable V block and bolts? I was thinking of getting an IBI barrel bu by the looks of your groups it's not to promising for a 500 plus barrel.
You literally wasted the money buying a Ruger rifle by buying the receiver. You literally have ZERO Ruger parts on it.. lol A friend has a super grade Kidd rifle and I have a rifle with a Ruger receiver, Volquartsen trigger kit and KIDD ultra light barrel, bolt, spring and buffer.. His rifle is a tad more accurate because it’s basically a bench competition rifle to where I built mine to be an ultra light hunting rifle. However the difference isn’t super drastic.. I already had a Ruger 10/22 for years to build off is the only reason I don’t have an aftermarket receiver.. We actually put my ultra light barrel on his KIDD receiver and seen ZERO difference compared to it on my Ruger receiver..
Haha that's funny, my ruger CHF bull barrel was way too loose and was dropping in my Grey Birch receiver. Caused about 20-40moa of barrel droop so I had to shim in.
I'm sure someone's told you, but you should run 5-10 foulers when switching ammo types. Also switching from 5 rd groups to 10rd groups isn't consistent. Sad to see you leave RU-vid, I like your 10/22, I wanna get a SBI chassis for my Ruger Target Tactical, they look good!!
Thanks for the video. I like the way the rear takedown screw is used to give a more secure fit in the chassis. That should improve accuracy over the normal action screw. Really nice looking rifle. I did not see your part one so I don't know who made your barrel. I replaced my stock 10/22 barrel with one made by Clint Beyer. He builds his barrels with a high grade of aluminum with a steel liner bore and a chamber that is probably between match and Bentz. Of the different chambers - sporter, Bentz, and match - you get better accuracy as you move toward the match. However my understanding is that the semi auto rimfires do best with Bentz chambers. Anyway, I usually shoot Federal Premium Champion 40 grain because it is dry (not lubricated) with 1200 fps velocity. I don't want the wax because it tends to gum up everything, and the gun cycles perfectly with higher velocity. No stingers! I continue to get sub MOA groups.
Sorry but this to me is a good way to waste money. I would just have save and save money at the start and buy a fully built Kidd or whatever custom brand 10/22. It would had been built by a professional builder complete with warranty. But to each his own, its a free country.
I'm going to be doing the small simple upgrades to my 10/22, like auto bolt release and mag extension release button. What else I'd like to do is a upgrade to have the bolt lock back on the last round, and be able to use the bolt lock back level as a bolt release as well. Any company out there who offers this upgrade to the ruger 10/22?
To have relevant comparison, you should have shot (5-shot group is sufficient) those ammo using the OEM stock. Then use that to compare to the Spectre shot groups. It's only meaningful at that point.
Get rid of that grip and get a vertical one and learn to shoot with your thumb on your trigger finger side. Should help greatly to get a consistent trigger pull
I did something that you might like, drilled a 1/4 inch hole in the back of the receiver to run a cleaning rod through the barrel without taking it off. Thank you for the video. Thank you Sir
