looking to borrow Ruger 10/22 receiver drilling jig

Does anyone have one that I may borrow in order to drill my 10/22 receiver? I will pay for shipping and will return it quickly.



Please PM is available!

Where in the world did you find an untapped 10/22 receiver ?

The jig is used to drill a hole in the rear of the receiver so you can run a cleaning rod from breech to muzzle.

With some machinist skills no jig is necessary.
Do you have access to a mill or a lathe or a machinist?

Couldn't you just run a rod down the bore to mark the spot, then drill with a hand drill?

Why clean the bore on a .22 anyway?
