10/22 Take Down

[snake-doctor]

The rifle breaks down into two pieces to carry in an included bag. So they call it the takedown model.

Took one home on Saturday, good shooter.

The bag is nice and easily configurable for a sling or a backpack setpup, it will make a nice truck gun.

I just need to get a nice scope for it and I cant help but thinking how nice it would be with a can.

What is meant by "takedown" ?

If you're able to watch the video in the first post it gives a good demonstration of how the rifle takes down.

Ruger 10-22 break down

Anyone have one of the new break down style 10/22`s ?,

Wondering if accuracy is any less than a standard model .,

Are old style stocks interchangeable ?

 

[Simon6101]

Yep

Yes I have one and the accuracy is fine. There are no stocks available as of yet.

 

[KG1]

Old style stocks are not interchangable because the rifle takes down into two separate sections.

The buttstock and grip with the reciever piece in one section and the barrel with the fore grip on the other section.

Here's a link to another thread thats had an ongoing discussion about the new 10/22TD.

I'm trying to get one... I haven't had a .22 LR since I traded my 77/22 last year. Went to PSS last weekend to see if they had any, Bob told me to come back Monday as he was getting 2 in stock. I show up and he said they haven't arrived yet and they were already spoken for anyway. HUH???? I have asked him multiple times and he has NEVER let me reserve guns. Guess I'm not in the right circle there...

Anyway I'm wanting one of these and the SR22 pistol too. (Yes I'm a Ruger fanboy)

I saw 2 today and really dig thrm....I am sure it will fit into one of my 3 day packs. I will be getting one soon.

Sounds like it's gonna be one of those right place right time kinda deals. I think the SR22s are even harder to come by.

I mounted the old 4X scope I use to have on my old 10/22, on my new Takedown;

That scope was replaced by a nice, Nikon 4X32 rimfire scope;

The short scope fits in the bag. No way the long scope will. Btw, I love that Nikon scope.

Not complaining, just FYI. If you're considering scope options for your Takedown, think 'short'.

I took it to AB to zero it today. Only took a few rounds, since it came off another 10/22. Next trip will involve shooting after removal, and reinstalling.

Thanks for the info nipprdog. I was just about to order a scope and didn't even consider the length until I read your post. I have a Bushnell 3x9 on my other rifle which is 13" long, that should have clued me in.

Yeah it's a good tip. I found this out too after I mounted the scope.

I have a Nikon rimfire 4x32 scope also that I just picked up and got a good deal on with a $50 mail-in rebate.

I still use it though because I have scope ring mounts that are easy to unscrew from the base so I just detach it and store the scope in the third sleeve next to the barrel.

I looked on a rimfire forum last night and saw that a guy has already taken an old wood stock and modified it to work with this new takedown rifle. I don't think it was too hard of a project for the guy to tackle either.

Pretty cool looking gun. Might have to pick one up once they get on the used market.

Even though they're selling like crazy, I wouldn't expect to see very many on the used market. IMO.

I wouldnt expect to see one new anytime soon depending on where you live either. Its the reason I bought mine last week

 

[teddy12b]

You can get them for $325 shipped to your ffl on gunbroker as of last night. That's not too bad considering.

 

[Regionnus Rattis]

Just might have to add another 10/22 to the collection.

Wish they would come back out with the .22 WMR version again.
