Ruger 10/22: The Everyman's Rifle, Part 2

- Part 2 of 2:
Every shooter in the US should own a Ruger 10/22 (and I wish my overseas viewers could too!). It is the everyman's, all-around .22 rifle. It shocks me when I find one that doesn't! That's because it provides immense enjoyment and capabilities for such a reasonable cost. Even out-of-box, the venerable 10/22 is accurate, very reliable, tough, ergonomic, lightweight, easy to use and carry, and most of all, fun! It continues to be an extremely successful Ruger design, having sold well over 5 million copies (and still going strong). It has out-sold and out-survived many other .22 designs to include the Remington Nylon 66. The 10/22 has always represented amazing value. That's because for a reasonable price you are getting a rifle that will probably last your entire lifetime. My circa 1976 10/22 (shown) was given to me as a young man by my Dad and has adventured with me in the swamps of Florida and Alabama, the woods of Virginia, Montana, and Washington, the plains of North Dakota, and in the deserts of Utah, eastern Oregon, Arizona, and Idaho. And it's still going strong. There are fancier and equally as-fun .22 rifles available but the 10/22s excel in most areas (and several cool Distributor Exclusive 10/22s abound, like the shown French walnut stocked TALO version) and provide unmatched versatility for the user. The 10/22 has a modular, simple design that makes upgrades to the trigger, bolt, magazine, stock, barrel, and sighting systems easy (many options shown in this Nutnfancy vid series). And because millions have sold, there is a plethora of wonderful and high quality accessories available for the 10/22. Downsides are few but include the lack of last-shot hold open and perhaps the tricky (for some!) bolt hold open design (easily upgraded). But these drawbacks are minor and the gun just gets it done. As a benchrest one-hole shooter, vermin hunter, plinker, survival gun, "Run 'n Gunner," training rifle, project gun, or valued heirloom gift to your kids: The Ruger 10/22 does it all and does it well . It is a staple here at TNP and I give it my highest recommendation. /////////////////// Nutnfancy Likeability Scale: 11 out of 10 ///////////// PART 2 INCLUSIONS: Ergonomics (including some stock sizing and options, LOP considerations, sights), bolt operation, sensible modifications, some factory gun variations, quick run down on disassembly and overview of reliability and durability. - บันเทิง
I bought my first 10-22 in 1979 from Wal Mart in Anadarko, OK for $86.97....! Still own it today!
I'm a lefty and have not had a problem with my 10/22. I love the thing!
i just picked up a 10/22 for $99 because of black friday prices. my first 10/22. so stoked on the price i got on it.
Hey Nutn, I gotta admit, love it when your ego shows up for a short rant, dead serious, take some pride, you really are the best at what you do! These 10/22 videos solidified purchasing one for myself. Keep up the good work!
We use to run around with 550 rounds split between 2 cargo-pant pockets when ammo was $8.99. I have 25000+ rounds through my stock carbine and it still runs like a tank. I bought it to shoot it, and it always answered back with "Thank you sir may I have another." All day....If I could only have 1 rifle to live out the rest of my life with it would be the 10/22. I need about 10 more of them.
i own the ruger 10/22 all weather carbine, and i never was happier, this firearm is reliable, acuret and cheap to shoot, i would recommend this rifle to anybody who is on a budjet, and still doesnt want to sacrifice quality....TRUST ME!!
hello all, so i just bought my first firearm, and it is the ruger 10/22. took it to the range today after several days of watching, well, you videos, plus reading all the manuals several times, plus watching the ruger videos on their site, etc. very nice range people told me what a great gun it was, and that i'd enjoy it for many years.
Man, these 10/22 review vids are what got me to buy a 10/22 (my first firearm purchase) about 2 years ago. The rest, as they say, was history. Couldn't be more satisfied with the value and reliability. Also, a fantastic project gun with so many options.
I just got my first 10/22 with 3x9x40 scope, shoots great.
Already my favorite!
mine has been passed down to me from my older brother and it has had hundreds of thousnds of rounds through it and it still works fine, no real wear other than the finish! Still accurate, reliable and kick ass!
Really great series Nutn! Love my 10-22 takedown and the 22 cartridge in general. What great fun. You gave me some good idea's for my 10-22. Thanks
I'm a .45 guy but you just convinced me buying a .22. nice guns seem to be so much fun. Very nice review aswell !! keep'm comin. =D
I don't buy a gun unless I see a review from you, thank you for your thorough work my friend, God Bless and take care!
Just went out and bought one. Very impressed with the quality.
thanks for the lesson, I'm left handed and have never owned a firearm but go to the gun range often with friends just to be ridiculed for shooting "the wrong way" so I wanted to get a smaller caliber rifle with a lot of custom options to hopefully learn how to shoot right handed. this presentation definitely helped me out and even tho it was almost an hour it sure didn't feel like it! thanks again for helping me be more informed
The 10/22, absolutely a winner. I have several. Regarding the last-shot bolt hold-open feature, lack of, at least with this rifle, you will not hurt it dry firing it. Ruger in some of their manuals actually recommends dry firing for practice--make SURE the gun is totally unloaded!!!!!
the best Ruger 10/22 review i have ever seen on you tube
thankyou nutnfancy for your time
I appreciate this review and all of your reviews. You have defenitally convinced me to buy a ruger 10/22
Every man's gun that won't break the bank. Great review man.
I've never had a problem with a 10/22 as a lefty. It ejects cases very far and directly to the right. never towards the rear.
shooting .22's is so fun i went out to the range w/my uncle and shot so much it was great
Love my Ruger 10/22 with Tapco Tactical Stock, Laser, and 3x9x40 ... Lots of fun and turns heads like an AR
hey, i'm a big fan of what you do...i'm from canada, and as you may, or may not know, our gun laws are quite strict. so most canadian gun fans are very limited to what we can shoot here...so to see the guns you review is a treat for me, keep up the awesomeness, and to all those who watch nutnfancy...accept no substitutes ;)
I owned a Marlin 60 back in the day but bought my daughter a 10-22. Now I want one for myself. Maybe the Takedown model. We have the synthetic stock carbine length with factory "fiber optic" sights. It's very accurate and in 300+ rounds over 3 or 4 range trips, all our feed issues were due to ammo. Remington bulk ammo is cheap and very dirty. We have 2-3 FTF issues every time, none whatsoever with CCI. I may do the mod that allows the bolt release w/o pressing the release catch. Great vid as al
Thanks for the 2 on the 10/22. Also all of your other videos. I am buying a 10/22 next month.
thanks for helping me to decide to get the 10/22 love it have about 2000 rounds through it in 2 weeks NOT 1 JAM!!! keep coming on the awsome vids
Again, fully in concert with you guys about Rimfire rifles here. When you buy a 22lr you end up with 2 great things: a fun rifle that you don't have to worry that much about, and a bunch of left over cash. I can't - and I think most of us can;t help but stat building them up to be increasingly "tactical". For that reason (this is not an advertisement) like go with Strike Industries as opposed to Magpul for a few reasons. Magpul is pretty serious gear, more for ARs and other battle rifles. Strike Ind is a bit more affordable, and a bit more intrepid in their designs. So you can really experiment with them without a lot of head scratching or worry.
i just got my first 10/22 which turns out to be my first true firearm and i love it i plan to take it to the range to shoot it the first time next week.
Nutn. Popped out of the womb with a level 2 med-kit and survival knife.
I'd like to thank you for creating an hour long tutorial for the 10/22. I have to re-run through them because I got interupted a few times but I enjoyed seeing your enthusiasm for the rifle. I'm thinking of buying my 1st rifle ever at 40 years old and the 10/22 is what I'm looking at. I came here to while researching peoples opinions. I'm not sure if I want a Carbine or a Tactical or a Compact so some of your comments helped illustrate the differences.
Dude nice job. I've been looking into buying a .22 and you just convinced me to buy this one. No site online compared to what you do in your vids. Keep it up
here it is :) nice nutn outstanding video again. it's good to see that you are out there for us - providing us the finest information.
I watched these, then I bought one. The Bass Pro European model. It is a sweet shooter.
thanks man, i actually quit bein lazy and looked it up. it is now on its way to my apt as i type lol. thank you
This is officially going to be my next purchase! Now I'm informed on pretty much everything about the gun. Thank nutnfancy!
Not always, but in rapid fire, absolutely.
Thanks for watching! -- Veri
really great gun! everyone should own one.
everyone loves those Tapco stocks, I wish they would make them for everything, I love my Tapco Mini-14
This video made me get one about 6 months ago. My first rifle being 16. Ive got a UTG Commando quad rail and a Tapco stock. Shooting it is so much fun!
RESPECT TNP N ALL ITS REVIEWS MOST HELPFUL THING ON TH-cam
Im keeping my gun. It was a gift from my father, it was also the first rifle/firearm I have ever owned so its a bit special.
Another great review. Your videos are greatly appreciated, keep up the great work! Ruger 10 22 rpf is my next purchase. I live in canada, so we have less selection, but I was eying the rpf for some time. Now with your video, I know its the best choice available to me. Thanks!
My first gun was a pistol which just so happened to be a Ruger SR9c since pistols are so practical. If you get a conceal carry permit you can essentially have the thing on you anywhere you go.
As for the 10/22. Marching is right. Its all about shot placement and if you do get this as your only weapon for home defense I'd avoid a scope and get some 25 round mags and train to aim and spray the hell out of your target from upwards to 10 to 25 yds using the iron sights.
Thanks for the video. I love my stock 10/22 they are great to teach kids and first timers.
I have the same Black Woarrior folding stock on my 10/22...with a red dot scope & steel lip 25rd mag....my favorite small game rifle.
I enjoy these.
I've been wanting a 10/22 to "tack out" for a long time.
I'm a big fan of rimfire guns and have a few, but want allot more. My Glenfield 75 is probably the best pack rifle I've ever seen. My only complaint is that it uses a tube magazine. Another rimfire that I have is a Walther G22. It has a certain "cool factor" about it. Its a very fun and accurate gun, but there are literally no modifications on the market for it.
One of my favorite nutnfancy videos, this is what convinced me to make my first ever gun purchase a 10/22 (well got an sr22, but close enough).
great video and very informative!! convinced me to pick up my 10/22 =) I've only ran about 150 rounds through it so far but I love it!
Great reviews once again. Thanks. I am looking to get a .22LR to add to my collection of Rifles and Pistols. I currently do not have a .22 so this video i know is going to help make a decision. Looking to get a .22 rifle and pistol within the next 5-6 months. I will be able to have a lot of fun with them because of the price of ammo. This video has helped me choose to get a .22LR before i purchace any other firearm. Thanks again and God Bless.
Recently, we were invited to a "shooting" party where we were allowed to try out a bunch of different rifles and hand guns. I started shooting this one rifle and fell in love with it! Had a pretty good grouping, a little high and to the right but I was happy with it. Asked what is this baby: Ruger 10/22 with an Archangel stock. Then I found you! Looking forward to seeing more, thanks.
i have over 21 ruger 10 22 and i love them one hell of a gun great to play around with and fun as hell aswell
VERY nice guns u have. i just bought one from academy and im on delay. its the longest few days of my life. u make me want it more
As usual Nutn....great vid. Awesome guns and covered all the points I wanted to hear about (as usual). What can I say, you just rock!
Hey, just bought my first 10/22 yesterday. I'd been wantn one for a while now and finally got it on an impulse. I bought my 10/22 b/c i new they reliable and easy to customize. This vid was very helpful to me, I know a little about guns, but i've never considered going with any after market parts or stocks, Just hearing some one who has this kind of experience with so many setup variation say what works well and what doesn't is very helpful. I really like Dura-Coat, I live in the Mtns of KY
your going to like this ruger just came out with 10/22 takedown
The auto bolt release is easily made by just using a jewelers file and it take about a min to take off the extra metal and its done. I have done it to all of my 1022s
After watching these 10/22 videos i think I'm sold on the Tapco T6 stock for my little Ruger.
I live in the East Bay. Go to the right Big 5 and you'll see. Castro Valley Gun Store has a TON of guns, Traders has supplies, though they can no longer sell guns. There is also Andreotti, very small shop, but they have guns.
Great video! Just bought the 'all weather' version today - black stock and stainless steel barrel. Just need some high cap mags and I'll be ready. Can't wait to shoot it!
No one's as detailed as Nutnfancy. No one has this many reviews of this caliber on guns and knives, and some other accounts on youtube have copied Nutn's style of review.
He's pretty darn original, and doesn't BS anyone on his reviews.
"You must stay up quite late Nutn" I do! Thanks bro.
You can't go wrong with Ruger, for all the reasons that Nutnfancy lists. You can pick them up sometimes at pawn shops, shop around and make sure you get a good deal. Gun shows could also be an option, again do your homework and shop around on features/prices etc......Good luck!
Wow, there was more than a couple of 10/22s in there, lol. You must really hate it, it scored 11/10 :D
.22s are so much fun, much more fun than even a .223, just because of the god damn price of ammo. Now .22lr is going for a premium DAMN IT!
I love that special edition 10/22
wow from the 70s its in good shape nice gun
It seems as though when I think of buying another piece of gear I find myself surfing your channel and sure enough you've most likely reviewed it. Keep it up great vids.
Hi nutnfancy, great video man. I don't have TV where I am so I watch a nutnfancy video at least once a day. Keep up the great work. God Bless.
just picked one up, this video helped me make up my mind. thank you
Nutn, do you have NINE 10/22's in this video?? NINE??? Damn boy! Get some!
love it man, 10/22's and MKII's are the tops.
semper fi
in general its good to wear them whenever you are around firearms
It's not 3 AM everywhere,
awesome video, as always.
I hope to see more of nutnfancy philosophy videos and nutnfancy outtakes ( if there is any ) would be funny :D:D:D,
keep up the awesome work and have fun !!!
Not saying the Ruger isn't a great 22.LR, But i would have to say owning both the ruger and the S&W 15 22 i would have to go with the S&W, The breakdown of the gun is so simple it could be done by a monkey. Its very accurate, Especially love the working functioning bolt catch and how the bolt stays locked backed after each clip is emptied. So for all the haters on the S&W don't knock it till you try it, bet you will like it much better
Great job as always!
hey, number two! cool.
keep it up nutn, I will allways be a fan.
I like the stock 10/22 with a cheap lightweight scope. It doesn't need anything else to be very accurate. Only other thing I would change would possibly be to install a smoother trigger.
Fantastic Review vids! I subbed. :)
I will be sure to make the 10/22 my first rifle! Long term value has been proven there!
Thanks for taking the time to do what you do!
Cheers.
your videos are so helpful! your videos are amazing.
im proud to say this is my first rifle. lol funny story i had to wait 5 hours for the system to come back up so i could be approved by the feds. so i sat there in front of the counter for 5 hours. my friend kept saying this may be a sign that its not meant to be. i told him, it'll just be that much more worth it.
I don't think you will go wrong with a 10-.22. If you know the owner & get a good price used is a good way to go. Most gun owners I know are honest and won't try to cheat you. you don't know a lot about fire arms, then getting good advice is essential. Hope you have an adult or parent to teach safety and have shooting fun with you. A .22 is not a toy. Best of luck hope you get a nice rifle. take care
+nutnfancy
if you had only $200 to spend on aftermarket parts/optic for a 10/22, what would you buy?
I was at the store today and the man handed me a 10/22 with the bolt back and I too had no idea about the bolt lock mechanism above the trigger guard haha.
This makes me want a 10/22 so bad
hey nut, warriors know who they are, even as a child. they just sense it.
Just picked up a Talo edition 10/22 which came equiped with an ATI folding stock. Really a nice stock.
Was gonna a stock gun and modify but then I have a stock that will never be used. This was easier.
I have a 10/22. Love it. Cost 145 with folding stock from a friend a few months ago. I also have the crappy ass 50 round drum.
lol, nutn goes on for 60 minutes on a gun and... 'as always we're pressed for time'... right on. Great review nutnfancy.
Another good name for "run n' gun" could be "shoot n" scoot". I actually think that might already be taken by M18 Hellcat tank destroyer crews though.
Yes there are a few. I think Tactical Innovations has a relatively inexpensive one.
If the stock was more full sized I would get one but the 597 just fits me so much better And in my opinion if the rifle don't fit its not fun to shoot.
very well made videos good job!!
@JYoumans251
Yes this is normal it will smooth out over time.
It gets that way at the half way point because its catchint the fireing pin and hitting the extractor. This is nothing to worry about.
love the tapco stock! love the 10/22!!!
Shooting right handed as a left hander is a very good quality to learn for more than just a 10/22 however, do not feel as though you have to learn it so that you can shoot only right handed! My wife is a lefty and shoots everything she owns lefty, 10/22, M&P 9mm, Walther p22 and an AR-15! 98% of the people who see her pull those all out at the range don't say s@%t to her and the other 2% are usually afraid to, haha!
Great 2 parter it's impossible to talk about all the great accessories available for the ruger 10/22.
always good vids
love these videos!!
