I recently have bought a Ruger 10/22 break down rifle. its a great little compact unit, and I have always loved the 10/22's. I am a bit dubious about the accuracy of this rifle after you have broken it down and then later reassembled in the field. I haven't really spent enough time using this rifle to be completely comfortable with the possum spanker. I would be interested to hear from other members who own one, are they as great as Ruger claim?
Hi mate, ive got one, i have a scope on mine, POI stays same after i re-assemble the rifle.....i love it
I like mine, no problem with accuracy after I take it apart and put it back together. Just make sure you have a good set if rings if you take the scope off.

Im planning to go find a quiet place to put a few boxes through her, check my scope. Ill break it down an reassemble and see how that goes. May be the Deadi was shooting like a dick last weekend.
Mine retains zero also. There were a few early ones that didn't. Took me 2 to get a good one.
There was some alignment problem that I found on a forum someplace that would have probably fixed my
first one but sold it before finding the fix.
New one is a keeper has aftermarket trigger, bolt buffer, full length scope rail, after market hand lever, DPT 22 Mag Suppresser etc... Oh plus very short barrel

So I tightened the locking ring about 6 clicks and it stopped. That may have been the problem. I have also down loaded the manual know from Ruger.com, and they also say that you should work the mechanism about 3 times after it has been assembled to ensure it has seated correctly. I never do this.
Looks like I'll have to retrain myself again.
