Best upgrades to a 10/22

[24Carat]

Smooth it out is an understatement ! Butter sums it up ! Clean, crisp and a glass break ! A 1 lbs pull makes me smile with every shot !

"bought the “upgraded” Ruger trigger". Now send that Ruger trigger to Brimstone !

Doesn't look like that is an option anymore.

They still work on BX triggers, just rolled the ordering info in with their tier 2 work.

I did this kit from TK in a BX trigger:

Ultimate Trigger Kit for Ruger® 10/22®

Replacement trigger kit for the Ruger 10/22 that provides a unique offering

tandemkross.com

Doing it myself resulted in a trigger that was 2 ounces more pull weight than sending one off to Brimstone.

Yes but again, see the verbiage when you look at the details of the standard 10/22 trigger work, specifically the wording "We are discontinuing all trigger work and online sales"

Also the fact that there is no way to actually purchase anything on their site.

I have never used Brimstone but it feels like they are either exiting or taking a hiatus.

I have another trigger I would like to improve. The last one was a $300 Kidd so I would like something better than stock but maybe slightly more economical.

Just found this on reddit regarding Brimstone

 

[marvin02]

Regarding Brimstone, I apologize for recommending them as they appear to be getting out of the 10/22 trigger business:

I found this dated 8/9/24 on rimfirecentral:



Relevant thread at RFC:

I hope that they can work it out so that Tandemkross can continue to offer the trigger kits.

10/22 22 LR Straight Fluted Barrel with 32 Hole Comp, Black | Volquartsen Firearms

I have all the little Volquartsen bits and bobs in my 10/22. Extractor, firing pin, and all the trigger parts.
I finally got around to put a threaded barrel from Feddersen on it have yet to group it, but it cycled a mag rapidly fired into the dirt. I even accidentally dropped the bolt while clocking it and put an idiot dent on the extractor slot, so it has character.
Avoid Faxons pencil barrel, I got one of those and it would group for ****.
Good glass is also a must, I like this PA ACSS Rimfire.
This is the dent I mentioned, I flattened it with a punch and smoothed it with a diamond file. Hold on to the charging handle well when rotating the barrel into position.

The Kidd trigger I put on my 10/22 made it a completely different gun have put several on for other folks and they cant believe how much better they are compared to the stock trigger

10/22s are inaccurate?

Stock barrel?

Stock barrel?

The stock barrel was tight, but this is a threaded FJ Feddersen I just got around to zeroing. With a Dead Air Mask, I can stack them all in a ½inch at 25yards.

So, it's not a true 10/22. I've owned 3 of them over the past 25 years. Great plinkers. But none of them shot groups like that.
