I got this Ruger 10-22 target for a steal. NIB stainless with a Tasco variable scope. The glass is cheap, but will be fine for a squirrel/plinker rifle at under 100yds. Fun rifle!

That's a nice looking 10-22! Does it have the plastic or metal triggerguard? I really like that laminate stock.

:( Plastic, but it seems to do the job so far.

mk 70, I have a 10/22T pretty much the same as yours, except mine has the blued barrel. I have 4 Tasco scopes, a 2.5x10x42AO, a 6-24x42Ao and 2 10-40x50AO's plus a Barska 8-321x50AO and they all work as well as my old eyes. Can not see spending more than the rifle cost for a scope too impress some name dropper. As far as the trigger guard, all it does is hold the components, I have 3 metal and one plastic and they all seem to work the same, all have been altered to a 2-1/23 pound pull by my local smith. Can really not tell the difference between them.

Mine has a Tasco 3-9 variable with a 40AO. Seems to work fine at any distance I'll use a .22 for. If I need more distance or oomph I'll grab the .223or .308. 8)
