A year in the making... Squirrel slayer is done!
Hi guys.
It all started with a Ruger 10/22 TD Threaded. I bought a Nikon Prostaff 3-9x40 BDC Rimfire scope, AMAZING! Then I replaced the hammer and parts of the trigger group with Volquartsen Sport Hammer kit, and also shimmed the trigger group. The result... 2 - 2.5 lbs of trigger pull, no creep, no slack, just glass! Best trigger I've ever used. Then it laid there, for months, until this past week I finally finished it. Added Butler Creek scope flip-up covers, got a decent bipod that pivots and tracks (Blackhawk!), and had to install the swivel stud to the stock by drilling it and gluing it in place. The results: s pooping their pants at the mere sight of this black beauty. Now the only thing missing is a can. But I hate the idea of paying a tax stamp and waiting months for something so frivolous as a silencer. We'll see...

Thank you guys, coming from a community of gun enthusiast with plenty of ARs and high powered juggernauts, I appreciate it.
Haven't fired it yet in it's present configuration, but I used Da's karma (bore sighter kit) to get me on paper and we'll go from there. After it's sighted in, I should be able to look at the squirrel in the eyes and ask "So, are you feeling lucky... punk!?" and then choose between right eye or left eye shot.

Good looking black rifle. It is sure to scare a pack of squirrels (and even a liberal or two).
