I made the same decision about two months ago and went with the Mil-R. It seemed a bit busy for me when I was making the decision but it is quickly growing on me. Overall I REALLY like this scope. I took it to northern BC and dragged it through every terrible condition I wish to go through...

Re: 10/22 barrel replacement I went with the Kidd and have been very happy with it. Shoots just about everything I have put through it in the .4's at 50 and that is working with the stock (crap) trigger I still have in the gun...

Re: 10/22 Build – Lots of pics Thanks for the comments. I was just too late on the first run of these stocks from Boyd so I waited it out and jumped on it as soon as they made another run. Given that they sold out quickly one would think they would be doing another run some time soon...

Re: 10/22 Build – Lots of pics I just replicated the spacer kit that McMillan uses. I searched for 3 days calling local industrial supply stores looking for 3/8+" thick plastic sheeting. I was walking through Home Depot and found 1x2x8' Azek vinyl trim. We will see how it holds up in the...
