Stock is up to you. There are a lot of places that sell stocks for them.
The above set up is what I did to my 77/22 Mag. I kept the stock laminated stock on it, just free floated the barrel. Now it is a tack driver and all of the mods were very easy to do.

The barrel, stock & the Volquartsen sear would be a good place to start. That's what I did to mine. It made a world of difference. Here is the link to where I posted pics about the rifle.

Re: Suggestions for Ruger 77/22 .22LR
I had conn. precision chambering true and tighten the bolt on mine. I went with a
tension barrel but I believe a match steel barrel would outshoot it. Mine had the
paddle so it got tossed in favor of a McMillan. There was only one choice of trigger
back then which was a Moyers. It is not perfect, If I take out the last bit of creep the
safety will drop the firing pin. The gun shoots just over an inch with some of the
better ammo. I never have tried the real high dollar match stuff though.

I'm looking for some improvement and I want to keep the benefits of the .22LR which is in my opinion a inexpensive plinker capable to having hours of fun with without having to spend $100+ dollars in ammo.

If you do nothing else to it at least put in the sear. It will help tremendously with the trigger pull and that will usually help your accuracy. Here is the link to the sear I got.
