Always wanted to do this....My Wife inherited a Ruger 10/22 from her Dad's collection and asked me if I would trick it out/lighten it up (she's 5' tall/100 lbs) and get an adjustable stock and red dot sights. So over the Holiday Break I spiffed her all up with a Gungner Polymer chassis and adjustable AR Buttstock. Replaced the barrel with a 16.5" helical fluted barrel (12 oz!!!) from Tactical Solutions and added a compensator/brake, Ruger 25 round mags, Bushnell reflex Red Dot, a green laser on the underside front Picatinny rail, oversize red charging handle, and Ergo SureGrip.

Mama is very happy with her upgraded Ruger 10/22.

VooDoo

That looks great VooDoo. I have an old Ruger kicking around and you've inspired me to do the same sort of setup for my wife.

Replaced the vortex with another 3-20 bender, it now matches big brother better.

Also ordered a timney flat trigger so they’ll both have that in common too now

Edit: Few pics from today, wanted to confirm zero on the 224v after having the thermal on it, and got to shoot the .22 for a little while, ammo was SK Standard Plus, still want to try a few different rounds but not bad 5 shot groups with the standard plus. Other pic is up top not sure why it went to the top..

Dang, 3oz trigger, can you feel it when it breaks? A buddy has a center fire with a 2oz trigger, when you think your finger touches it, it goes bang.
At first it feels that way. You can touch them, but it only takes a minimal amount of pull to break the shot. Actually for what I’m using them for I wouldn’t mind them being a little lighter.
 
What are the build specs on that one with the Kidd trigger?
It is simply the standard BXR-01 steel with a KIDD two stage swapped for the Bergara trigger unit. Nothing else changed. The BXR is a bit tighter tolerance than the standard 10/22. Run one against a stock 10/22 if you get the chance and you can easily tell. They feel smoother more "snik", "sink" than clack, clack. The OME trigger wasn't bad at all. Just I like nice things. And a KIDD is a nice trigger for sure.

Actually i was super serious, I figured the 22lr does not have enough gas to affect rifle of that size... But since you have data then it works, that is actually awesome to hear. I am skeptical, my intuition is that a well done target crown should disperse the gasses evenly and should be the end all/be all for accuracy, but that brake must have some really nice and tight machining to equate even gas dispersion.

Not here to troll, but if you want me to troll then: you're**
I'm sure Steve Foster and TODD at Wiland can set you up with all the machining CAD / machining metrics you need to satisfy your obvious bias. Anyone at first glance would characterize your first comment as trollist, truly if it was just, you being you then you can understand my retort.

We have 5 full Kidd ULW rifles, 4 for Rimfire Challenge (one for me, each daughter and son-in-law) and the other one is my "Squirrel Gun"...there's a picture of the squirrel gun at the top of the previous page. I also have another Kidd trigger in my Ruger 10/22 Target with the 20" stainless "spiral" barrel. They are great triggers!

Fantastic ! ,..... scarry thought! imagine a world without .22lr or 10/22 platform. I'd be sad.
 
When people settle down and stop "conspiracy chasing" and think honestly about how much rimfire they shoot. Add it up and think about the larger ever increasing market size that needs to be feed. They start to see the reality and stop conjecture. Last weekend me , my wife and daughter together shot in excess of 2k rounds Fri/Sat. that's just one weekend getting away. And conservatively let's say 40 weekends a year. That's 80K. That's a lot and then everyone else thats a rimfire shooter on the planet lumped in. NO WONDER we have a shortage. Not because of evil poli-social gremlins...
