people do it to protect scope from knocks that occur in matches. I did it cuz it looks cool.
I've since pulled the spigot & arca rail section off the front end, and swapped in a silver Kidd trigger group & his scalloped bolt. Ran ~ 200 rounds of Norma Tac-22 40gr for barrel break in. Kidd heavy (3lb) fluted, threaded bull barrel (Super Grade.)
Nothing to brag about @ 50, but # 12 was a super nice group. 6, 9,10 & 11 all had fliers.. go figure. I'm sure this rig is capable of doing this all day long, once I get the right ammo in her.

Nice set up! Try to get some sk standard plus my 10/22 loves it
I've got a bit of SK Rifle Match, Pistol Match & Pistol Match+. I just snagged a few bricks of CCI Std. velocity as well. I'd really like to see it run well with the CCI. We shall see... Today is AR shoot'n day.
Da' Shaft from DST Precision helps to make it balance where you want it too.
I'm doing a 10/22 cause I can't swing a voodoo and cz doesn't make a lefty anymore. Plus I can throw a dot on and do steel challenge.
Just debating between a bxr, 10/22 comp or tacsol xring. Either way it'll get a timney Calvin elite and krg chassis. Or something close to my mpa chassis.
Nice rifles fellas
I can't find Travelor's post. but..
Why the big $$$ investment in the 10/22 platform? For me it's just a stubborn idea in my head to get one that shoots lights out like a bolt gun. I realize Voodoo is the way to go, but I started years ago doing 10/22's (mostly Kidd) and never looked back. Plus the fact semi-auto is fun doing double / triple taps.
In all seriousness, you're right. Voodoo and done. But I'm so far into the 10/22 world I'll just stick with it. I don't compete, I'm just having fun.

Yep! Work's pretty great. One setting for with and without suppressor.
No. I was just messing around and only a few minutes to play with the rifle before I had to report to another part of the facility to teach a handgun class. I packed my stuff in from the parking lot and just did not take it off while we got the photos. This was not a match. Just a photoshoot.
I’m not gonna lie. I loved the look when I had the 18”. But with the sparrow on it. I just wanted a longer barrel to help with balance. And I went with a 12” twist.
Custom Ruger 10/22 - Ruger 10/22 action, all Valquartsen internals, trigger group, buffer, automatic bolt release, and extended mag button, Hogue Overmold stock, Valquartsen carbon fiber 16.5" barrel, EGW 20 MOA rail, Seekins Precision 30mm Low rings, Zeiss Conquest 3-12x56 FFP.

The ACC is designed so you can cut down. I have two cut back 3.5 inches for 16” & 18” barrels
MDT acc chassis came in for my 457 LRP.
I love the stormtrooper look!

Not the best pics, but here's my now ARC M-Brace'd, Kidd Supergrade .22LR beast..
Just did the initial piecing together of this Kidd Supergrade. Yeah I know... That height over bore is going to give me a nice cozy... Chin weld.
Beyond that, plan to add a couple more things here and there then shake it down at a local Appleseed event before joining all of you at some NRL22/PRS Rimfire matches!

Here we have a full custom 10/22 format pistol, so much so that the only Ruger component is the magazine! The components selected are on everyone's short list of the very best available for this format firearm: Kidd 10/22 Classic Slip Fit Receiver with Kidd Bolt Buffer and Receiver Pins; Kidd Single Stage Trigger (2.5 LB) with Sportsman Mag Release; Kidd .22LR Bolt with Kidd Charging Handle, Guide Rod, & Spring Kit; Beyer Ultralight Target Barrel, 4.5" fluted, with matt black finish, threaded 1/2-28, with thread protector (not shown); Enoch Industries Odin Chassis; Tactical Solutions Fake Suppressor; Ruger 10/22 25-RD Magazine; Magpul MOE K Pistol Grip. This chassis and receiver combination will easily accommodate any 1.00" diameter .22LR suppressor. Weight just 2 LB 9 OZ!
So Is It a Pistol or a S.B.R. .Did not know kid sold pistol action
If you buy just a receiver (not a complete rifle), it's registered as a "Frame or Receiver", so you can make it either/or. It's all about configuration based on "intent". Buying a 10/22 receiver is no different than buying an AR15 lower. If you install a barrel shorter than 16", it better have no stock, or a brace. If it's barrel is 16" or longer, you can put a brace or a stock.
I Know that's why Ruger labeled the Charger .Same with the contenders .But years ago Remington made the XP100 .Some shooters made 700 actions into silhouette pistols . So now you must have the the origional receiver designated as a pistol not to get into trouble ,Went down that road it wasn't fun back in the 1980's

If it starts as a rifle it is always a rifle. If it starts as a receiver or pistol it can be changed back and forth. T/C has an exception for the Encore and Contender guns.
I am thinking about buying the Boyods stock . I have the factory thumb hole stock . Which I like . But want the cheek adjustment .
A good friend had seen a nice CMP M52D in a Doan Trevor prone stock made of some nice claro walnut for sale, and sent me a link to it. Doan is a friend who made a sporter stock for another 52D for me out of a nice English walnut blank, and finished a very nice English walnut blank that Steve & Shirley McGee had duplicated for me in their 'Trudy' pattern for one of my BAT 3L rifles. The stock on this particular 52D was duplicated from a H&H prone stock, which made it particularly attractive to me, since I've got three LR prone rifles in Robertson H&H stocks, which is one of my favorite prone stock patterns. Long story short - I wound up buying this 52D, and after robbing a Ken Viani rail off another CMP 52D, shot it prone with a few lots of Eley Match, which shot some very nice 50yd prone groups. Though this is a fairly modern prone rifle, I wanted a vintage scope for it, and mentioned that to the same friend who'd put me onto the rifle in the first place. This guy absolutely loves to help his friends spend their money on gun stuff, and is actually pretty darned good at it - it took him less than a week to find a very nice Unertl 16x 1-1/2" target scope on GB, and now it's on this rifle, which I think adds some class to a good shooting 52D. Forgot to mention that someone had modified the trigger in much the same way as Karl Kenyon did when he was still living, and it's a very decent & easy to shoot unit. The only thing I don't care for on the stock is that the original owner had specified that Doan cut the butt shorter than usual and make a buttplate that would accept Anschutz butt accessories. It's trick if you don't mind paying $$$ for that hardware, but honestly, I'd have preferred the butt had been left long and just outfitted with a McGee or Tubb 3-way buttplate. I've got a Tubb 3-way butt, which looks funky on the stock because of the way it was shortened, so will be looking around for some Anschutz hardware.

On most all receivers that is 100% true but KIDD, since forever, has always designated their receivers as a rifle on any and all paperwork. Incuding what they record to the ATF. They are the only place I know of that has ever done this. Over on RFC.Com it has been discussed and proven. Now, if KIDD has changed that designation then it was only recently and many will be happy they did.
Call KIDD and ask em for the facts.
