The latest introduction from the Ruger Custom Shop is a 10/22 Competition Rifle boasting a skeletonized green mountain laminate stock and a stainless steel bull barrel.

The 16-1/8" stainless steel bull barrel features black Cerakote accents and is fluted to reduce weight and dissipate heat. The 1/2"-28 thread pattern accommodates the included muzzle brake or other popular muzzle accessories. The barrel also features a proprietary, enhanced semi-automatic chamber.

The skeletonized green mountain laminate stock decreases the overall weight of the rifle to help provide increased speed when transitioning quickly between targets.

The 10/22 Competition Rifle features a hard-coat anodized, CNC-machined, heat treated and stress relieved 6061-T6511 aluminum receiver with an integral, optics-ready, 30 MOA Picatinny rail. The custom receiver is paired with a heat treated and Nitrided CNC-machined match bolt that creates a tight-fitting, smooth action. The dual bedding system incorporates a second bedding lug, ensuring the receiver is securely bedded to the stock. This rifle also features an innovative second barrel locator to provide a free-floating barrel. The receiver incorporates a rear cleaning port, providing access to the barrel from the rear of the receiver for ease of cleaning.

This feature-packed 10/22 also comes equipped with: the popular Ruger BX-Trigger which provides a smooth take-up and crisp break; an oversized bolt handle for ease of charging; a match bolt release that allows the bolt to be released forward with a quick pull to the rear and release; and an extended, ambidextrous magazine release.

This rifle ships in a hard case and includes a detachable 10-round rotary magazine, Ruger Custom Shop Certificate of Authenticity, challenge coin, cleaning cloth and decal. For more, visit Ruger.com.
