How about 21 Sharp or 17HMR with a flip bolt?
Needs a 2stage Kidd trigger, 1 pound or less.
Looks like a fun tease, I wonder what it is ;D

And here I sit with a stripped 10/22 receiver, just waiting for suggestions. Possibly a Imperial Stormtrooper theme, then I would have an excuse for not being able to hit anything?

I have one of those $1000+ 10-22 with no original Ruger parts. Call me crazy! #)
I am assuming that you are being humorous. So make sure you get a 14-42 power scope with 1/16 moa clicks and the scope has to be longer than the barrel.
I've had the intention of making a tricked out 10/22 that didn't look like one, at least at first glance. It's fairly straightforward to make a race gun, and they usually come with loud stocks so you notice them.
I remember a couple race guns had a specific problem. Stock Ruger extractor, match barrel. The bullet would engage the tight rifling on insertion and everything would be fine, unless the shooter ran out of time and had to clear a rifle with a live round. The extractor would not have the strength to pull the chambered round out of the rifling hanging onto the bullet. I don't know why they didn't have a beefed up extractor. A rifle is a system, like any other. Even a positive change here can have a negative effect there that was not anticipated.

Yep, I have several of those upper crust 10/22's.
In jest of not, the upper crust 22's add a bit of consistency, when you build
one it fits better than having vet wrap and pool noodles for fitting.
My first 5 Rifleman qualifications came from factory rifles (my bad eyesight requires a scope)
so the cushy rifle is earned. At least in an old man's opinion. :snipersmi
Buy Basic 10/22 for about $250
From the Appleseed Store buy the follow:
10/22 Scope Package $200
Sling $23
Sling Swivel $13
Buy Sling Studs $20 from Amazon
That is just over $500
Use $50 to buy your buddy his beverage of choice to help install scope and sling studs.
Buy $350 in ammo
Register for Project Appleseed 25M event $85
And you still have $15 for lunch...
MAHA

You keep hinting at the special Parker'[s Revenge] target and we want to know more please....
The Minions are so busy they had to call in the Spiders from Mars to to help with this target.
It seems like there are teasers being dangled...

I have a feeling we'll be finding out soon!!!
I'd start with a Black Rain Ordinance model and add from there. They've got most of it done from the get go.
As for the target, I have to ask... Do the officers have a slightly darker red color? I'd love such a target after the talk on target identification on day 2...

The silhouettes are all the same color, not sure that will work for

I've seen a few of those on the line!
