Upgrading Your 10/22® - Where To Begin? 

That's so great to hear! Thanks for sharing.

Dude I shoot 3" knockovers at 150 with my factory ruger american and aguila comps. $1000 volquartens perform better than ruger with match grade ammo in competion but with most consumer ammo that most people buy you wont see much difference. A world where 2moa @50 yds is considered decent is not a world of precision. If you want true precision set up a match quality .17 mach II. If you wanna have tons of fun blasting steels out to 100 on a cheap 500rd brick than theres no beating a 10-22. I must say the M&P is a fun little zombe slayer too. I suppose the game of bulding your own high end rifle to your taste and shooting at 2" spots @50 with open sights is appealing to a lot of people. Older gentleman as myself no longer have the vision to focus on open sights AND distant targets but 3-9s and red dots work well enough for a good time. Ranging knockovers @100-200 and hitting them with the ruger american/ pride fowler rapid reticle is quite satisfying to me. M&P with red dot is perfect for short range zombie work on the walking courses. Bullpupped 10-22 with firefly bolt, CCI 710s and 3-9 fire dot for night ops. I've thought about building a Volquartzen or Kidd with 2 stage match trigger but I got all 3 of my rifles for almost the price, sans optics of course.

Appreciate that!

Not as of Nov 2023; I ordered a TG2000 assembly for my takedown 10/22 and received it promptly. Same when I ordered a trigger assembly for my Mark IV Hunter. They are both great, transform the guns.

Bought one used (shot one time) off neighbor for 150, already spent 550 on upgrades, had no trouble finding any parts. Your looking in the wrong place

We do offer our laminated wood stocks if you'd want to go that route, absolutely!

Trigger is always the best place to start. Followed by optic. Extended mag release is also good for quicker reloads. Then how does the stock feel? Upgrade that, then move to barrel etc..

It's simple. Wrap sandpaper around a socket and sand the barrel channel on the stock.

Our Competition Bolt and TG2000 Trigger Group are compatible with the 10/22 Takedown. We also offer Lightweight Barrels for the 10/22 Takedown.

The TG2000 is CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum

??

Unfortunately, the receiver is not compatible with the takedown model. We do have barrel options, as well as our bolt and trigger group for the 10/22 Takedown, though.

Any specific questions you'd like us to cover?

@@volquartsencustom just a video on the items, accuracy, also the reciever. Like in invest in that due to the engineering on it compared to others especially the OEM Ruger receiver.

Have you reached out to our techs at tech[at]volquartsen.com? It looks like there is a request for assistance in our queue.

Try 10 lbs not 20 on the barrel screw

I got the snake fluted barrel an shoot rws 50 it's a one ragged hole at 50 yards

Yes our receivers are serialized

That's correct!

@@volquartsencustom very awesome do you have a local selling part of your business there? Or is it all done online

Our current Lightweight Carbon Fiber barrel design prevents this because the actual stainless-steel barrel is the treaded portion.

seems good on our end?

In my case it comes down to rules in my shooting competition. We’re only allowed to use certain type stocks barrels accessories ect and the 10/22 is the easiest and most common 22 platform to modify into exactly what you want to meet restrictions. For example no thumbholes or pistol grips the only stock this company makes that we can use is the sporter stock. And all flutted barrels are banded to keep you from getting a lighter barrel (carbon fiber barrels are allowed though)

To use your VW Bug analogy, upgrading a 10/22 is inexpensive and easy (compared to other firearms). You can find a fully pimped out VW Baja Bug but you never learned how all the parts go together, interact with each other, and how to easily fix problems that may come up. Also, there is a huge 10/22 community. You can get really cool upgrades from small, independent shops, and get amazing support and guidance from passionate, knowledgeable, and patient fellow shooters. Mostly, it's a fun hobby and even on a budget, you can create a really fun rifle by building it up over time as finances allow.

@@delphic464 I totally agree, easy to work on lots of affordable accessories to make a fun affordable pinker. The large capacity magazines are a problem though, who cannot resist a mag dump with a full mag! That was great when you could get a brick of ammo for $15 and unlimited supply. But I think some of these guys out there spending well over $1000 to make a target rifle is ridiculous, just go buy one to start with! I sold mine because of all my .22s it was the most frustrating to keep reliable.

That's a very silly way to ask such a question when Volquartsen makes such top quality products. Go ahead, buy cheap products and get substandard or negative improvements.

Tightening 2" groups to 1.5" groups is a huge percentage.

I are curious but broke? I watched lol

Put your CZ in front of the 10-22 @ get an Annie.

😂 that’s a bolt gun. 10/22 is semi auto.

The only thing a 10/22 excels at is wasting ammo!
