This is by far the most comprehensive video on the baclkpacker stock and its usage.
An FYI for those thinking about getting a takedown. Buy the Ruger x22 model as it comes with the x22 stock as well as 4 magazines.
Its the best upgrade to my takedown ever. My love for my 10/22 has doubled.
They should consider including a neoprene sleeve, to add some scratch protection while keeping it slimmer than the stock bag.
I have this same kit (except for sight). I fixed my very stubborn pistol grip cap by applying a thin coat of silicone grease to the rubber seals. Now it comes out with ease without compromising its seal. I store a Bore Snake therein.
Also installed a mini piccatinny on the side of the forearm for a mini light.
Great kit!
Nice, I'd slap a grip on the side, along with the 110 drum for a mg like kit. Think rpk.
Hey, I was curious if you used the mlock system from mag pull to install the pic rail to the foreman
@@osvaldotrujillo5795
No……I just purchased a 2” long 3rd party brand rail, removed the inner liner of the forearm, bolted the rail to the left side of the stalk so that the power button of the flashlight falls right under my thumb, and reassembled the thing.
Unobtrusive and functional!
Love this 22. This bag and 22 is the ultimate shtf or wilderness survival tool anyone can have. Ruger knocked it out of the park. And the PC carbine take down fits in same bag.
A very small amount of silicone grease on the rubber seal of the pistol grip storage lid makes it much easier to get the thing in and out.....without compromising the seal.
I bought the exact model 10/22 and love it. The only difference is mine came with the black stock. I also bought a stainless steel flash suppressor. Not because it's necessary, but since it looks so cool. I also bought a red dot sight and couple of the Ruger BX-25 magazines.
just ordered one, can't wait to get it! takedown model with backpacker, 4 mags, and fiber optic sights.
Squid Master how much did pay if you don’t mind me asking?
@@gustavogarcia4449 I paid $360 shipped for it on sale. The 4 included mags is what tipped me over the edge. I hate buying mags separately.
@@EndingTimes0 i live in california. do you need licence , permit, back ground check to own one?
@@tonysin4474 yeah I think in Cali you need to do Adobe kind of test then background check then waiting period or something but I don't live there so I'm not sure.
I keep 3 mags, and a bag of rounds in the back, a bore 🐍 in the grip. You can keep extra rounds behind the butt plate also.
In Australia and can't have semi auto on my license so I am really excited that tacsol now have bolt action version.
Ice liked the look of the Magpul takedown since I first saw it.
teatowel11 Wow Australia is beyond screwed.
Here in the UK we can have semi auto .22 rim fire, but not center fire, so we can get a 10/22, however, I don't think take down rifles are allowed. We're just as fucked as Australia, so I feel ya pain. You can have pistols in Aus though, right? At least that's something.
Jim Marshall Why aren’t takedown firearms allowed in Australia? Y’all are screwed bye y’all’s Democrats.
@@pricelessppp I was talking about the UK mate, and like I said "I think they are" I've just checked and can't find anything about them specifically on the banned list, so it might be possible, just not popular. Also, politics is a bit different here than the US, if you can imagine that, and both the Conservative party (like your Republicans) and the Labour party (like your Democrats) have been responsible for big gun bans. The Conservatives banned center fire semi auto rifles in 1987 following the Hungerford shooting, and Labour banned all pistols in 1996/97 following Dunblane. I can't speak for Australia, I don't live there.
Also the gun fits much better in a Copper Basin Takedown bag. It's also got a shit ton of room for other stuff (ammo, mags, range gear, etc)
You're absolutely right Magpul is much smaller than the Ruger case that comes with it as long as you don't need extra ammo or mags nor the extra pockets on the outside nor the added scratch protection of the case
You can also use the .22 snake cleaner rope to put in the kit too!

Thank you very much! I just brought my rifle home from the store today and have been familiarizing myself with both the Ruger 10/22 Takedown instruction manual, as well as the Magpul X-22 BackPacker manual, i.e., Ruger now offers this option sans the backpack carrying case. I watched your video in the midst of reviewing the rifle instructions and albeit, I would have eventually discovered the "grip storage," I actually discovered it while watching your video and the hint/suggestion about easing it out assisted greatly. In short, it does seem to be "air/water tight." In any event, great video - again, thanks!
Great little rifle one of the best .22 in the universe.
Excellent review and commentary. Very intelligent and informative. Thank you.
I had a 10/22 Takedown, but no matter how much I adjusted the barrel to receiver nut per the instructions and forum tips, it would never hold zero. When I looked online in forums, a lot of other people had this problem. However, a co-worker has a Marlin Papoose and it always holds it zero without having to fiddle with it. That's too bad, because I love the 10/22 platform.
Could be a bent barrel.
@@vtl1349 I sent it back to the factory twice and they couldn't figure out the problem. They ultimately gave me a credit to get a different gun.
Leave the box of ammo out and you can add 100 rnds loose in a baggie. For a total of 120 rnds plus the pistol grip capacity.
Would be amazing if someone made a high capacity storage solution to put in the stock that could hold more than 50 rounds and not move around or rattle.
That’s exactly what Grey Shooter suggested. Low tech and effective. 👍
The functionality of that modular modularity sure is functional.
They functionally modularized it
Looks like a pretty nifty stock. I like the two QD sling mounts that’d be perfect for woods walking in the takedown configuration. Oh I like the little storage compartment with either you can store 3 mags or a bag of ammonium.
I love my backpacker. I have a red dot I just got that needs to be installed on it. The next addition will be to get a sling for it.
Before you buy a sling, do some actual hiking with your 10/22 stored in a back pack. You may find you don't need the sling.
This is a very cool takedown rifle and I have considered buying one but I ended up going with the Kel Tec Sub 2000 rifle and the Henry AR7 22LR takedown. Both are also very compact and will slide easily into a pack. Thanks for the review and I may still buy one to add to my variety of weapons for hunting and survival.
Texas Urban Hunter & Survivalist my AR7 had failure to feed a lot it's not very reliable although still cool option I think I'll switch to this for my survival pack rifle and put the Henry on the boat because it floats.
Awesome video. Just ordered the grey stainless threaded version today. This info was a great and quick overview 👍🏻
Amazing survival rifle.
I'm about to own one. Should have picked it up yesterday!! Getting it this weekend. Can't wait to take it for a spin.
The cheek weld riser is way cool I already had my TD 10/22 built before they came out with this stock, no I’ll have to build another one to add to my collection i wish you could just buy the barrel and receiver from ruger cause by the time your done with them that’s the only stock parts left
my whole dilemma
Brownells has a stripped receiver for the regular 10/22 (BRN-22). The railed version is $90. They're expected to come out with a Takedown version, but it's not out yet (as of August 2018). I went with a Tactical Solutions receiver and barrel, but these are more expensive.
What a great and thorough review! I appreciate your work bud!
Nice job on the video. I am getting one of these next week when I make a trip to Brownells.
Wow, that’s some intense intro music -
It would have been nice if you name the price you paid for the stock, with all this talk of costing and upgrades. It totally pisses me off when people just don't spit out how much they paid. That was the only reason I watched this video. And I still gave you a thumbs up.
I hear you but it is always hard to quote prices on a video since they frequently vary and change. At that point, it invites a lot of comments about pricing alone which we all try to avoid. I did however post links in the comments section to the products so you can see the latest prices from the cheapest vendors I tend to use...
Nice video. AZ resident here. Just subscribed 👍
Me too
I'm waiting for mine right now and this video was extremely helpful - thank you!
Magpul did come out with a mount on the barrel for a red dot - However, I really like
how the BSA scope fits on the backpacker...At this point I am really undecided which
way to go with optics for my backpacker.. Great video !!
Best backpacker viddy 🔥
Wow, very interesting! I wish they made one like this for the Mini14
I'm assuming you are talking about For the underfolder? That would be cool...
At first I imagined a backpack with a standard mini-14 barrel sticking way out of the top. Lol
100% on the cost. It cost me 60 bux just for the sling mounting. But if you love the 10/22 like I do it's worth it.
SOLD!!!
Excellent review ! Just subscribed. Thank you.
Can we get Mora to team up with magpul to make a knife that fits straight into the handle?
Great idea, that would be sweet.
probably have better luck getting a company like cold steel or buck to do something like that
I didn’t realize rifles had “handles”.
that's a water resistant seal, and it's pretty snug. Would be a little dangerous trying to draw a knife.
With bayonet clip. Lol
I have the new magpul takedown, nice, you stated in your video that you listed the websites where to get extras like scope, QD swivels that I’m really interested in? Please let me know what site where I may purchase these items. Loved the video and if I may interject a point I couldn’t help notice you kept clearing your thought this may be a possible sign of acid reflux, please, I’m not making fun of you I’m hoping you appreciate the free medical advice! Nicely presented video and look forward to more. Thanks, Charlie
Really nice thorough review! Thanks Much!
was board so i took a standard 10/22 non takedown and put the x-22 backpacker stock on it.turned it into a looks like a marlin paposse with a fixed barrel.all i wanted was the storage of the backpacker.
That MagPole X22 stock could be further improved if they would re engineer the barrel to go into the lower part of the stock and modify the forearm portion to fit in front or over the trigger guard while still leaving the extra magazines.
You could try using a Hydration pack to store it in. If it holds a 100 oz. bladder it should be big enough to hold the rifle and a couple of mags and some ammo. Depending on the pack, some are just a sleeve to hold the bladder, while others have a pocket or two to hold some snacks or whatever.
P.s. Brush up on your addition 2-clips=20+50=70+25=95+25=120 not 125 lol.That is one of the best take down set ups today and tomorrow, great AZ. TRIGGER!
Need one for the PC9
Great Vid.. Thank you!
Very cool, Thanks bro!
I have the backpacker for my PCC 9 takedown. I like it a lot.
@ skezus, im a backpacker hacker. i carry edc blade and saw. not a camper, a 9 inch saw. but a place for utility would be goodi i personally would not add the bulk of an optic. but good idea. henry slingpacks are working for me even first aid and extras! i actually fitted a gerber micro into the ar7 so 16 rounds total in the takedown ar7 plus whatever you want in the slingpack. all good bug outs
Comparing the thickness of the disassembled rifle with the stock Ruger pack is deceptive. The pack is padded and even with the Magpul disassemble and put in to the pack would be exactly the same thickness. If you have an optic, common sense says put it in a padded case to protect it.
Great rifle! It is a pity that it is not found in our country.
Greatly explained video. I just ordered one looking forward to swap it out. Just a heads up all the links you've posted are dead.
Love it thanks for the video
I bought my in 2020 and my already has the x22 stock and comes white 4 10round mag and. A lock for safety I am ready bought the binary trigger and shoots well of course premium Ammo like aguila and cci. Also I install a extended mag realese mag pul sling also I have 4 bx 25 mag that a total of 140 round to shoot I will buy 4 more bx 25 it really fun to shoot.
I like it better than the AR7
Right now at Grabagun.com in black it's only $83.84. Sick right!
Great video. Lots of detail. Thanks.
short barrel and a moderator would look perfect on that set up ,
Just an FYI, none of the links to the products are working. Great video though!
Very well presented
Cheers Mate!
Great review! I want one
very professional video
I wish Ruger would sell the 10/22 with the Magpul stock.
I've had my eye on the bolt version of this. i really like the design and weight of it. However, I have been a little apprehensive in investing on this rifle based on its accuracy and return to zero while a scope is attached. have you had any issues with that?
He's not joking about the money adding up. I have $1,500+ put into mine.
I have a nice Remington 241 for backpacking
Max load out of 120 not 125
How about a compass in the stock and that thing that tells time?
A cellphone?
I would prefer a bacon cheeseburger and fries in the stock compartment. I get hungry when backpacking my Backpacker.
Could you post the overall rectangular dimensions when its compact ? Both with scope and without. Thanks
Thanks
Almost perfect review if you gave more information about the sling mounts instead of the storage .
The only problem I've had with the magpul set up is the fact that the barrel wiggles around. Up and down, mostly. Is there any way for me to fix this?
Shim the gap between the buttstock and foregrip with something. You can get very thin sheets of styrene plastic at most hobby shops. Could cut and stack shims out of that stuff.
Nevermind the shim idea, Ruger already built in the adjustment. There is a knurled ring around the female end of the receiver that the barrel inserts into. You can adjust that by precisely the amount you want to make it super tight or just to take the wiggle out.
Would like to have seen if it fits back in original bag ,or what dimensions its compacted too, also if the 25 round mags store anywhere and like every product an msrp or estimated cost
The gun will fit in the original bag with the x22 stock installed.
Everything fits into the original pockets.
The 25 rd mag will not fit in the stock it self.
What kind of optics are you using? i could not find the additional info about it. Thanks.
Overall, the video is a great overview of the rifle. But... how is the ability to accessorize a rifle a drawback from a cost perspective? If you like the toys, you need to pay for them. It's not fair to judge the cost of the rifle based on after-market options. That's just kind of silly. That's like saying a different rifle with NO options has a price advantage, and that's not true. You don't HAVE to spend an extra dime, but you can.
I have not done this yet, but when I get the sling made of paracord I will also install a little fishing kit in the butt making this a great survival rifle.
You should sharpen the barrel so you can use it as a fixed blade machete as well
@@gdbynoe interesting idea.
UNCLEDOUG SAYS NICE VIDEO !!
What scope do you have on it and what power is it? Nice video.
Great!!!
With the scope installed as pictured complete with barrel, will it fit in the large pocket in the Ruger bag?
Yes it will , but not with scope , red dot maybe ..
@@danew637 so No then...
With the barrel sticking out so far past the stock how are the groupings (barrel harmonics) like to see this rifle shoot 50 yrd groupings
Gary coinmaster I have this rifle with the tactical solutions barrel and a primary arms 22lr scope. The rifle is pin-point accurate at 50 yards with bulk Federal 22lr ammo. It gets boring after a while ‘cause you keep hitting steel/bulls eye. I like this setup so much that I sold the rest of my 22lr rifles. My advise: go for it, but the tactical solutions setup. A little pricey, but worth EVERY penny.
Would I be able to backpack in california with one of this without a cwl?
Does it still fit in the takedown bag?
Frank yup - sure does. It even fits the single pocket of the bag when locked in takedown mode which is better then how it fits without it.
@@AZTrigger Does it fit in the single pocket with your scope on when locked in takedown mode?
When are you gonna make an update video and show us what you keep in the stock. I’m looking for ideas.
If you go hiking with this rifle a hamburger and fries will fit in the butt and a travel size canned coke will fit in the grip.
Im 6ft and I've got long arms and a long eye relief scope, wishing that it came with the thicker butt plate.
What is the brass trigger you have in the 10/22. The one you linked to Midway is the drop on kit, it does not have a brass trigger.
does it take a .920 barrel?
Does anybody know the difference(s) between the Magpul Hunter and the Magpul Backpacker 10/22 takedown?
The Hunter stock is for the standard Ruger 10 22 rifle. The barrel doesn't come off and store like this model.
the x-22 is great, my experience with the 10/22 wasn't great, I'm happy with a savage mark 2 now.
Nice 👍
instead of the bag of extra ammo in the butt stock id put a barrel snake for cleaning in the field
fire starter in the pistol grip because water tight....perfect design!
Now it just needs a mora knife out of the fore grip
could you fit a mini bic and a swiss army knife in the grip?
I have this exact stock(and color) and yes, you can fit a mini bic lighter and knife in the grip. I'l be doing a video soon on some survival items you can store in this stock so keep a look out on my channel.
How much is this for the whole package, stock, rifle etc. I’ve seen them online for $100 - $1,100
$100 would be just the stock.
Depends on the configuration. Gallery of Guns has an exclusive that comes with 3 extra magazines and Williams Fire Sights preinstalled. That's about $500 right now.
Is the trigger upgrade you listed the gold trigger? Didn't see details in description.
It’s a great rifle, but the way it’s guarded does not seem safe for the integrity of the rifle.
Will the mist 22 takedown fit directly on to the x22 backpack gun or do you have change the reciever t/cr22 reciever?
Why not attach it to the outside of your rucksack?
