Re: SHWW Group
Sold pending trade to diggler44
Fellow Washintonians,
I just wanted to post something I am selling here to give you guys first dibs on it.
Anyway, here goes. I just learned that the rifle I am having built is going to be spending another 2-3 months at Birdsong due to a large influx of government contract work. Before I was armed with this knowledge I had ASSumed that I would have a rifle near the end of July. So in a moment of foolish optimism at the beginning of the month I decided it would be a good idea to have a fun rimfire plinker/trainer to get some cheap trigger time and have a fun gun for camping trips and such. I was immediately seduced by the 10/22 platform. I built up a cool little rifle and had a little fun with it. Unfortunately it has not filled the centrally primed, long distance, bolt-action void in my heart. Now with school beginning to loom close I have decided I really want to get in some distance work, and possibly one of dontstrokeme's awesome looking matches before it is back to books. To do this I need to finance it by selling my recently built rimfire.
The 10/22 in question is as follows:
-Purchased new factory Ruger 10/22 receiver in black, has Ruger's Weaver rail mounted
-Tactical Solutions threaded SB-X barrel, black
-Kidd manufactured bolt, matte silver finish, very nice piece that include their firing pin and EDM extractor
-Kidd charging handle (black) and guide rod, includes 3 spring options, standard, +10%, and -10%
-Black Hogue Overmold stock
-untouched factory polymer trigger group (after market trigger I had purchased for build turned out to be unsafe)
-2 standard black Ruger 10 rd rotary magazines
things that will be included free with rifle if wanted:
-Ruger wood stock with barrel band, unused except for sleight handling marks from gun shop fondling (minor)
-Ruger factory bolt, never fired unless they test them at the factory
-Ruger charging handle/guide rod assembly
-------------------------------------------------
The gun a little over 700 rounds through it. Most of this was Federal Auto Match, the remaining ~100 rounds were higher grade match ammo. The majority of the shooting has been at steel targets, but preliminary paper testing half inch potential at 50 yards (5 shot). It has cycled everything I have thrown at it, from mini mags to standard velocity, to 60 grain SS, to 38 grain SS, all on the standard spring. Reliability has been excellent so far, with only a few problems on break in. The barrel has seen a bore snake twice, once while the snake was new, and a second time when it was fresh out of the wash.
There may be a few very minor marks on the rifle, but nothing notable, or even hardly noticeable that I could find.
Price for everything listed, and possibly more that I am forgetting: $400, or make me an offer no matter how paltry
I would love to move this as soon as possible. I would like to do this face to face and I am willing to drive just about anywhere in western Washington. Serious potential buyers are more than welcome to shoot it and ensure it passes muster.
I just need my centerfire fix
I knew I forgot something. Right now I am without a proper camera, if pictures are wanted I can send abysmal cellphone pictures.
