My Ruger 10/22 is complete

I ran into a good deal on a Ruger 10/22-T a while ago. It's the only 10/22 I own and I wanted to turn it into a simple yet elegant (in my eyes anyway) suppressor host. Today I received and installed the last of the parts I wanted for it and I'm very happy with the outcome.

The rifle started as this (pretty but ho-hum):

Modifications:

PWS T3 Carbon Fiber Tension Barrel
Factory sling swivels replaced with GrovTec quick-release studs
Brimstone Tier 2 rigger Job with wide Rimfire Technologies trigger done on the factory group (absolutely amazing difference)
Rimfire Technologies charging handle
Rimfire Technologies bolt release
Rimfire Technologies Black Widow buffer
Rimfire Technologies black hex head take-down screw
Wiegand 10/22 Integramount scope mount

I might send the bolt to Que for work in the future but I was very pleased with the groups before the Brimstone job. I am going to shoot it this weekend and I imagine with the trigger job I'll just leave it alone.

Result:

SWR Spectre II suppressor mounted

That Brimstone trigger makes quite the difference in shooting; it's great. The rifle had no malfunctions and great accuracy. Even my wife enjoyed shooting it so it's definitely a keeper.

Love my stock stainless 10/22T model but you've clearly taken yours to the next level! Very sweet!

I think the Integramount is the best mount out there for the 10/22 as well.

Should serve you well for years to come - great job!

I got that mount on a whim because it came with a Leupold scope I bought used for another rimfire rifle. It really is nice, solid, and blends perfectly with the finish on the receiver. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better 10/22 mount.
