Squirrel45 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Hi, I have shot 22 steel a few times with my 10/22 but am looking to improve upon it. What do you recommend for a beginner / novice stock for a 10/22? thumb hole or pistol grip something else? thanks Squirrel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakehouse2012 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I'd recommend watching some of the Pro's talk about getting faster. Ken's channel is one that I find useful: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwFSygw5bf4JdZqUFGwF0Gw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrdoran Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Hello fellow CT / Nutmegger; I'm an experienced SC shooter. Happy to help out. Until you get the feel of what you like and don't, stay simple. Buy a Hogue rubber stock as they are light and work great. Most important is trigger ( Kidd single stage is best ). Red dot or Irons is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KelsonAK Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 It doesn't matter, as long as it fits you. I've found the Magpul stock works well for me and is cheap. I set the LOP a bit on the short side vs. a hunting rifle and I got a riser kit so that my cheek weld and the Cmore dot line up right. I've shot the Tacsol thumbhole stock and I like it a lot. I've shot an Axiom stock and it was fine. The Hogue stock is really nice as well. The chassis systems are very cool. When I'm rich, when the rifle is holding me back from the next .1 second, or when I feel like upgrading beyond what I have now I'll probably get one of Todd's systems - again for the adjustability of it (Willand).

xpierrat Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 As others have said get some matches under your belt..... I also would say a good trigger is number one on the list and a Kidd single stage is often the bench mark but others have their favorites.... brimestone does wonders reworking stock triggers and if you are mechanically inclined kidd and others have drop in parts for a stock trigger improvement.... the black hawk axiom is a reasonable light weight stock used by many shooters and has a LOP adjustment... also is in the $80 range so is budget friendly... but can be hard to find right now.... after that I would change to a Wiland barrel as taking weight off the front is a major improvement in getting fast transitions... if you start looking at the full chassis route then I recommend Wilands chassis as it is light and super adjustable to get the right fit... good luck and have fun here is mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flageo Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I second the blackhawk axiom stock. Comfortable, lightweight and reasonable. I have them on both of my RFRO rifles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38super Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 10/22 is almost as bad as a wife that likes the newest furniture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Snyder Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 if you shoot an AR platform for other gun games, a PMACA chassis will allow you to add an AR adjustable stock and grip to your 10/22... there is virtually no fore end... a added a section of 1913 rail to the fore end, and use an angled fore grip... index down the barrel with my weak index finger as I shoot shot guns....

bigdawgbeav Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 All a matter of personal preference. I just built a 10/22 and was excited for the TacSol Vantage stock. After I got it I didn't like it. Didn't fit me like I had hoped. So I went with the Wiland chassis for it's adjustability. I'm looking to sell the Vantage...

Squirrel45 Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 Thanks guys, picked up a used houge thumbhole stock. Seems to offer much more control over the stock. Now I think I fool around w the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
