Thanks to INGO, I'm now the proud owner of a 10/22 takedown. It's really a remarkable little gun, and I'm looking for advice on how to make it even better.
First, since the barrel removes from the action for takedown, is it necessary to set it up with a scout style scope (mounted to the barrel rather than the action) to achieve any kind of accuracy? Or is the lock up good enough that a traditionally mounted scope will hold a zero even when the rifle is broken down and reassembled?
Second, what kind of accuracy are these guns capable of? It is threaded, and when my suppressor arrives, I am planning to thin the squirrel population with it. Longest shots would be 50 yards most likely, so 2 MOA would probably cut it, though I would be happy if the rifle could do better.
Finally, what 10/22 upgrades would you consider a "must," and what other upgrades would you guys recommend?
Thanks!
