Ruger 10/22 Competition

摘要

What's the first thing almost everyone does when they buy a Ruger 10/22? Start customizing it, especially if you plan to use the rifle for a special task like competition. There are plenty of companies out there ready to sell you the components to maximize your 10/22's potential, and for years Ruger left at least some money on the table by not selling purpose-built rifles with features advanced shooters want. That's changed in recent times, and the new 10/22 Competition is a good example. The rifle comes from Ruger's relatively young Custom Shop, and the Green Mountain laminate-stock version I tested has a lot of the features competitors look for. Right off you notice the proprietary stock, built in Ruger's New Hampshire facility. It's a skeletonized laminate, with the large open portion of the butt contributing to its light one-pound, 11-ounce weight. A natural rubber buttpad keeps the gun in the shoulder nicely.
