New Ruger 10/22 Takedown Rifle — Nicely Executed Package
Ruger just announced its new Ruger 10/22 Takedown rifle. This lightweight rimfire rifle comes apart into two sub-assemblies in a matter of seconds. The 4.67-pound Ruger 10/22 Takedown is 37″ long when assembled; each sub-assembly is less than 20 1/4″ long when disassembled. Ruger even supplies a handy storage case to hold the disassembled Ruger 10/22 Takedown.
The barrel and fore-end of the Ruger 10/22 Takedown are easily separated from the action and buttstock by pushing a recessed lever, twisting the sub-assemblies, and pulling them apart. Reassembly is the reverse of takedown. The friction-fit lockup of the assembly joint can be adjusted, but Ruger says it should rarely need re-setting after initial assembly. Ruger claims that “the lockup is secure and repeatable, ensuring an accurate return to zero, even when receiver-mounted optics are used.”
The Ruger 10/22 Takedown is shipped in a ballistic nylon backpack-style case with internal sleeves to hold the sub-assemblies. External pockets with MOLLE webbing provide storage for magazines, ammunition, and other accessories. Multiple attachment points for the padded, single shoulder strap offer different carrying options.
MSRP is $389.00 with Storage Case
Utilizing the standard 10/22 action and 10-round rotary magazine (one magazine is provided), the Ruger 10/22 Takedown represents a reliable, compact, and portable package at an affordable price. MSRP is $389.00 MSRP, and we expect “Street Price” to settle around $340.00. For more info on the new Ruger 10/22 Takedown visit Ruger.com or Facebook.com/Ruger.

Just when you thought a factory standard, unaltered 10/22 couldn’t get less accurate……..
EDITOR: Your comment elicited a laugh. As one gunsmith friend of mine joked: “The 10/22’s capable of excellent accuracy — all you have to do is replace the action, stock, barrel, trigger, and sights.”
Pleased I can bring a smile to the world. The reality is they ain’t that flash in the accuracy department ‘out of the box’ as your gunsmith eluded to. My BRNO semi will stay inside an inch at 50m with hunting ammo even with the awful trigger pull.
Just wanted to say that I love the new Ruger 10/22 Takedown and found this awesome video of it being shot and exploding bottles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzO9p8_OJxo I can’t wait to get one and do the same.
