Nah you make one out of parts, most of the 10-22 parts are fine. Either fixing or replacing the trigger is the most important move then the barrel.

I second a 16" Tikka T1x. I think they're excellent value, great quality and super accurate with the right ammo

Just this past weekend I was able to get mine repeatably hitting a 310m gong which i was bloody stoked with

I love my T1x the 16" version is great if using a silencer.
I shoots nice tight groups with CCI Standard velocity under 70m, but once you push out to 100m the groups open up very quickly.



Hunting ammo is considerably less accuracy than CCI Standard and good quality target ammo is considerably better in most cases

When you say open up, how big a groups are you getting?

Off the top of my head:
50m about .5-.75"
70m, 1"ish
100m, 2-3" can usually get 100% hits on 100x100mm plate
150m, can get all hits on a 200x200mm plate but 100x100 is iffy.
200m, 200x200 is iffy but 300x300mm is about 90% hits.

22 groups open up by a factor of 2.81each time you double the distance. Been proven by the US Lapua ballistics lab.
