We'll be going on vacation to Colorado this coming summer and my Ruger 10/22 International would be a terrific companion. But the rifle will only fit in the back of our SUV diagonally. I don't want to stack luggage on top of it and I don't want to place the rifle (in its long case) on top of the luggage.
Hmmmm? What to do? I know! Buy a Ruger 10/22 Takedown!
I had a concept that I submitted to Ruger for their 50th Anniversary contest, but they didn't select my idea. So I made my own 50th commemorative and it will be heading out to Colorado with us this year!
I bought this one and put a Vortex Crossfire II scope on it, mounted in Leupold quick release lever rings:
Then I bought a Ruger/Talo walnut International stock (with the hand cut checkering and red butt pad) off Ebay and sent it to Mike Warren at http://www.1022td-woodstocks.com and swapped it onto my new Takedown:
Of course, I put one of the new BX-Triggers in it as well!
Now I'm all set!
