A progress report, 1.5 coats in, this one gets wet sanded after a few days, then it's all the topcoats.

I went the other route with my Ruger 10/22 and I went tactical with it. The Ruger is a very accurate rifle and it fit this application fine, This message has been edited. Last edited by: fyimo,

A different direction, sort of. This rifle IS going to end up with a scope on it, possibly a bipod.
If I were going "tactical," well I'd want to suppress it, but no go with cans here.

I keep coming back to this post, I've found my self searching 10/22 parts. It's only a matter of time.

Looks good, arc. Have you decided on an optic yet?

A Leupold of medium magnification, with a German #4 is in order I think.
