WORKING ON YOUR 10/22
Rifle|Special Edition Fall 2020
The title of this feature is not really appropriate. The connotation of the words “working on” is that there is something about the old Ruger 10/22 with a cast receiver that needs repairing, altering or changing. Such is not the case. In fact, the 10/22 is perfect for its intended purpose, which is to provide a means to participate in that most honorable pastime of plinking.

WORKING ON YOUR 10/22

Difficulties arise, however, if the rifle resides in an area that requires it to be cleaned and lubricated to prevent rusting of steel parts. In drier climates, malfunctions will eventually occur due to fouling buildup, regardless of lubrication applied. Despite how good the Ruger 10/22 is, it won’t run forever without some attention.

First are simple cleaning operations. This requires disassembly, which is begun by removing the magazine and checking to see that the chamber is empty. Next, loosen the takedown screw and remove the barrel band (if a carbine model). Now push the safety button to halfway between safe and off-safe. This allows the button to clear the stock inletting just above it as the barreled action is lifted out of the wood. Failure to attend to this detail will put a nasty dent in the stock, and the rifle still won’t come apart.
