10/22 Homebuild

[Sherman A. House DDS]

I’ve only used the takedown version but I like it well enough I’m seriously considering the fixed version for my next build instead of another target stock.

Then again the takedown pull is strong and I’m having to resist the idea of turning all my future builds into takedown builds.

Yes! I have a couple of those as well and this stock feels like a fixed version of that, and it’s even lighter/trimmer. I ALSO have the backpacker stock on my PC Carbine, which is also fantastic.

Usually my first thought when opening PF:



Actually, I know the answer. $102.34 because the Brownells code SUMMER15 is valid on the PC Backpacker stock.

There are things you can do to make the 10/22 more accurate. There are things you can do to make it more reliable with lower powered, more accurate ammo. Amongst the former is having the rear of the barrel faced off 0.2" and rechambered with a pistol match chamber which is smaller in diameter at the rear and very lightly engraves the bullet. You can have the bolt face, faced off to reduce headspace to minimum. You can radius the corner of the bottom of the bolt such that it consumes less energy while cocking the hammer. You can smooth the recoil spring guide.

With most 10/22 barrels, there is nothing wrong with them, other than an extremely reliable, but inaccurate chamber.

I had several modified, and have been entirely pleased with them.

I have changed so much on my 10/22 takedown since I bought it in ‘11 or ‘12 that it is practically homebuilt. The only thing original is the receiver and bolt. For a while I had it in the Midwest Industries Chassis, but that just seemed bigger and bulkier than a 10/22 needed.
