Just awaiting a response from Louis from Whistle Pig regarding a finish request and another build will commence. This will b my son's first build. he picked the stock form one I had here I was going to use myself but he wanted it soo... Wanted it light for him so I went with Whistle Pig again. The trigger will likely head to TT Shooter for another rework. All will attach to a factory Ruger receiver. Undecided on optics but as it's a beginner, I'm thinking Simmons.
Gotta get things in line for MY winter build too. Narrowed the receiver down to two (awaiting response from one manufacturer on theirs). The bbl I've got narrowed down as well but will proberbly go with another Whistle Pig since I've been VERY happy with my current one. It's more than accuarte for my purposes and looks great. 8) The trigger will very likely be a Kidd this time. Already have one with a Jard and a couple with TT's rework. Optics on mine might be Burris again but looking at another. If I can substantiate the cost for what I want visually, Ill go for it.
In the meantime, I've got another stock here awaiting it's use. That one will need a silver receiver and will get a Green Mt Aero bbl. Might try a R/T trigger just to be different but also might mix it up on optics and go with a Redfield or Nikon. This one will be a plinker, so maybe something closer to Simmons. :?
Still have two other ideas I'd like to build up, one kinda for fun but the other is unlike any 10/22 I've ever seen. Gonna take some coordination of a few folks to get all the parts but it will be VERY cool if it comes together. 8)
