New steel challenge gun

[dennishoddy]

Shot the world championships steel challenge a couple of years ago when it came to USSA in Tulsa.
Picked up a Nordic forged stock on the prize table that uses a stock ruger 10-22 action and barrel. Later got a 10-22 enhanced trigger assembly on another prize table that is set for 3 lb pull and a short reset.
Put it all together this morning and shot it at the range this afternoon.
Bushnell red or green red dot for optics.
Man, this shot good.

HaHa! Basket of wifey things sits in front of that port. I wondered how many would see it.
Good eye!

The only thing left to do is take it back down, chuck up the barrel in the lathe and thread it for a brake from Makereadyproshop.com

Its so quiet, that a timer has an issue with consistently picking up the shot.
Plus it looks cool, and that's the most important part.

Forgot to mention that the factory 3lb Ruger drop in trigger was added to the build. The old 6lb felt like it was polished with sand. Knock out two pins, install the new, and its off to the races.

Does this drop in trigger require you to push in the bolt release or can you just pull the bolt back and let it go to release?

Pull it back and let it fly.
The bolt does not lock to the rear at the last shot. Its a Ruger 10-22 Tactical action. (tactical because it comes out with a 15 round mag) Other wise it was a box stock receiver and barrel.

One of my Anschutz rifles has a trigger factory set at 3.4 ounces. Talk about a nice trigger....

I'll bet. Don't know if I could trust myself with a trigger that light with out a lot of dry firing.
