HI I would love to show pictures but all I get when I copy and paste from Photobucket is a list of numbers and I cannot 'copy and paste / download from 'my pictures' on my PC. Why is there not a 'contact' e mail for assistance?
Thanks
Jack

The latest in my collection of full custom and semi custom 10-22

cheap but reliable and accurate

Looks fantastic!

May I ask how much?

My 10/22 only has a few additional bits and bobs - Timney trigger, Power Custom bolt handle: have a Power Custom firing pin and extractor to fit. Would like a Volquartsen Carbon Fibre Match Barrel which would mean a new stock. Head says for that money I could buy a CZ bolt action (nearly), heart says buy the new barrel.

So many things to save for - .303, .308 etc.!

Looking for a custom 10/22 second hand which has been modified, hopefully I can then swop the parts between the two to get what I want.

I love that stock.. Very very nice!

Where did you get it from? I'm after a few bits for my rimfire magic 10/22 and hoping not to have to order from midway.

the stock is a boyds barracuda, not easy to find now, think boyds stopped doing them for a bit, I like them as they are kind of like a blaster back end with evo front end

they are right handed as standard but this ones been modified to allow left hand for bianchi, 1500 etc, has a thumb shelf cut into it, is very very comfortable

picked up a rifle with few nice bits on it already then just added 2nd hand scope etc, all up it owes me £310

took it out yesterday to zero it at my usual 50 35 25 15 and 10, at 50 it was doing thumbnail sized groups with ease and Im not that good at shooting groups, put 50 rounds through a ragged hole of about 1/2" and just gave up LOL

what bits you after?

It certainly looks great, i've got a hogue stock at the moment but i'm planning on changing it as soon as i find one i like and can easily get ahold of.

Mainly I'm after a replacement large charging handle, I think my spring is a bit week and i find that handle difficult to use! Also an extractor & firing pin.

Eventually a replacement trigger, but not really a fan of the price of the timney unit.

Those groups sound great, i was surprised with mine.. didn't think it would shoot well at all after all the things i've heard about semis.

extractor and firing pin are easy to sort, kid items not cheap but great quality EDM cut precision jobs.

bolt handle, you got the kid setup, not cheap but good quality with 3 springs, or theres the tactical innovations ones get them with anodised coloured handles if you have a colour theme running. I did play with a quite large handle, think its actually called the big boy, but suffered with cases going back into the breech LOL

VQ handle is nice, but needs a slight tweak to make it perfect

I took a stock bolt handle, ground the handle down a bit, then used jbweld to bond a .38 special case onto it, job done :) best thing is to also strip the handle setup, then you can polish the guide rod etc

Have you tried:

http://www.valmontfirearms.co.uk/spareparts.html

I bought my bits from there.

I am after a Volquartsen Carbon Fibre Match Barrel and stock, a Rimfiremagic Complete receiver is even harder to justify: however should a complete rifle come up at the right price secondhand!!!

Oooh i'd not found that site! Looks perfect to me, thanks :)

I know what you mean about justifying the rimfire magic, especially seeing that they don't sell the actions separate. I luckilyy grabbed one that had a few hundred rounds with it and it's great.. I'm just one for playing about with stuff (never happy!!)
