Sorry to say this is the problem with small pistols.

Are we talking about pieces, pounds, or buckets? :unsure:

I noted that the majority of the 'bragging rights' knives in the pictures on this post don't seem to show signs of wear or use. o_O

"that I will never shoot my MK II Gov target as well as it is capable of," Nor will the majority of other shooters reach the capability of their Ruger 22 pistols. I have approached the mechanical accuracy limits but only by using higher powered optics than most would consider suitable for a 22...

Wow, that's a big muffler. Can you get it tuned down to 'movie quiet'?

I think you'll find that factory cases are notoriously uneven. For most needs, cases under max length are fine--it's the grossly overlength ones that cause problems like jamming into the leade and not releasing the bullet as expected. For those cartridges that require crimping, trimming becomes...

I have a FastFire 3 on one of my 22/45 using a rear sight dovetail mount. It works well and stands up to real world use.

Nylon 66 is a good rifle. My first and I still have it. I certain you'll like the Vortex on your 10-22. There is a bit of difference between the rimfire and centerfire versions. The rimfire version has the parallax set for shorter range than the centerfire. This is only a factor if your eye...

The high profile Romeo 5 is primarily intended for use on a long gun. I don't have one readily available to determine if the 'riser' is removable as it is on some of the Vortex branded dot optics.

One of the issues is inconsistent velocity due to powder charge position in the case. I knew an old bullseye shooter (38 SP with minimum loads and wadcutters) who tipped his muzzle up before each shot to move the powder closer to the flash hole.

The Vortex Crossfire II rimfire scopes are darned good for their price. I really can't see much need for anything better on a common 10-22.

Blazers, Federal AutoMatch, Federal HVHP, Aguila, even some 30 year old Remington 'Golden Bullet' stuff all work well--the only issues are caused by sub-sonic or low noise type ammo. If you flushed out that much grit, the gun should work fine.

^^In that case, I'd suggest looking at a different optic. I have a SIG sight very similar to the ROMEO 5 and IMHO, you might be more satisfied with something more compact that sits closer to the barrel. From another perspective, I really don't think the dovetail type mount is strong enough to...

"Why??? The .44 Mag case can handle loads from -600fps to +1300fps loads. " I think Contender addressed the problems of tiny powder charges in big cases.

" The Hogue stock is really good as well, so that will be doing most of the outside work so the orginal one can stay inside and stay pretty. " o_O I have a couple of 'boat paddles' around here but still get amused that the utilitarian has become the collectable. BTW Welcome to the forum.
