Thread: Advice / Ideas on upgrading a Ruger 10/22

Having problems with a Ruger 10-22 I own so I've decided to give it some love and get some upgrades.

It shoots CCI subs accurately, not as accurate as my CZ452 but it shoots accurately enough however it keeps jamming with subs especially CCI so i'm wondering if there's a minor alteration that can be done, someone has suggested taking 2.5 turns off the recoil spring?

I'd like to put on a new stock as the plastic fantastic which is already on it doesn't give me enough comb check so I'd like to here from guys who have either a Hogue or a Magpul X-22 stock they have on their rifles.

Barrels... I might be persuaded to upgrade the barrel but not wanting to go bull barrel as I want to keep this as a light hunting rifle.

Trigger... The trigger is quite heavy... any modifications that can be done to lighten it or possible replacement?

As for optics, I was running it with a Bushnell red dot but recently replaced it with a Vector Optics 1-5 scope which has been awesome.
