Sturm, Ruger & Co.’s initial offerings from its new Custom Shop lineup include the new 10/22 Competition Rifle chambered in .22 Long Rifle.

The race gun upgrades and features include an integral Picatinny optics rail and a rear cleaning port. The receiver is stabilized by two stock screws instead of one and, in addition to the two screws that secure the barrel’s V-block, a third screw is set into the free-floated barrel just below the optics rail.

The painted and textured laminated stock provides a slip-resistant grip with an adjustable cheek riser and rubber recoil pad. ruger.com
