After learning the true power of a 308win and witnessing the horror it brings when paired with a very lightweight tikka t3x, my wallet has cried out loud and brought this home to train and get acquainted with.

I have done quite some research, and as i wanted a 22lr i picked up the ruger 10/22 scope and rifle combo from basspro for only 460 plus tax.(Get it while the sale is on!! You also get a hard case).

With the ad break now over, ill continue.

I was planning on getting the derya tm22 flash/ derya tm22 feather (m16 look is crazy)/adler arms rf 224, all because i wanted an AR style plinker and maybe the occasional hare/ rabbits/ squirrels/grouse. Broke my heart to see that none are that good for hunts. So i wanted to settle for a cz457. But Alas thats a bolt action! So i went in and got the semi auto ruger 10/22 and realized that can be my hkg36c if i need it to be xD.

Now collecting info from you guys on what aftermarkets to install and what to get replaced on her.

I dont want a competition shooter neither do i have the capability to dump 1k+ on her.

Tldr: got a ruger 10/22 and need suggestions on aftermarkets and swaps

This looks like the new model which comes from the factory with the BX trigger and the auto release function right out of the box. On the older models you had to buy the BX trigger group and do the auto release mod yourself.

Tbh you really don't have to do anything to it. What you have is already a tack driver on it's own. I would say just stock up on 22LR ammo, pick up some more magazines for it and maybe down the road a more powerful scope if you want to do some competitive shooting but that's it. Also, if you plan on taking it out hunting in the bush then I would just leave the original stock on it cuz it's bound to get dinged up anyways.

The Butler Creek mags are all pinned to 10 rounds anyways. You're only spending extra money for extended pinned mags that I guess look cool but do nothing. I'd would just stick to getting the 10 rounds mags. Also, Winchester Wildcat mags will work and you might find them for cheaper.
