Recently sold a new 10/22 wood stock for over 900.00. It did have a box that had 50th anniversary emblem on it. Why was this gun so hot? Was it the box or what. It looked like every other 10 22 I see.

  I've never been a real fan of the 10/22, but when I'm at the range with friends & they have their semi autos with 20 & 30 rd mags, nice scope and I'm plinking away with a Win 52, peep sights and 5 rd mags, well, the 52's more accurate but maybe not as much fun.
  
  Saw & bought a Ruger 10/22 Target today for good price (heavy bbl & laminated stock) and am looking for some help on those little accessories Ruger fans seem to load up on. I don't want to go wild, just make the thing a little more convenient to shoot & accurate. Specifically:
  
  1) I want to replace the trigger - any suggestions?
  2) Is there a device that will hold open the bolt after the last
  round?
  3) Auto bolt release - is there a bolt release that allows the bolt
  to go forward by pulling the bolt to the rear instead of having to
  play with the release on the underside of the rifle?
  4) Mag release - is there one that protrudes out so I don't have to
  press the stock one in?
  
  Finally,any feelings on whether the Ruger benefits from glass bedding either the action or barrel or both? How about free floating the barrel?
  
  I don't want to go wild on this project - just put together a nice shooter.
  
  Thanks.

  I put a Butler Creek carbon fiber barrel and Volquartsen target hammer in mine, around $150.00 total, and shoot less than 1MOA with Remington ammo at 75 yards.

  I put a Butler Creek fluted .920" barrel and Hogue overmolded stock on mine and it shoots less than 3/4" at 50yds with a stock trigger.
  
  A great rifle with a junk scope,....is junk.

  I put a Butler Creek 920 barrel and stock and a Power Custom hammer and sear kit made my own trigger over travel stop and am pleased with the results.
