I went to my local Gun Shop to buy a Ruger 250 Anniversary AR Lower and ended up with a Ruger 10/22 on the same DROS! I bought Model 32009 with the BX trigger and Birch stock! I’m so excited! It’s time to read up and get myself familiar with the Ruger 10/22 platform during the 10 day wait.
 
Congrats. The 10-22 is a great platform. I used to shoot a lot of bench rest competitions 10 years ago. A number of my friends who joined at the same time put bull barrels on them and a decent trigger and their rifles were quite competitive. So many things you can do to it. I’d suggest just shooting and enjoying it as it is.

You will love it. There is a reason it owns the .22LR rifle market.
 
Add a .22 handgun then watch how quickly you realize you ain’t so good as you thought you were! GP100 in .22LR humbled the 💩 out of me! But man it’s sooooo fun to shoot and teaches you a lot!

I bought the cheapest one I could at 🍆's Sporting Goods moons ago, just so I could rebuild the whole thing with the insane plethora of options to make whatever you want with these beauties.
 
Sweet, good choice on the bx trigger version. Also congratulations on not being like me buying an AR-7 for your first 22, and just going with the rightfully ubiquitous one that is fun to shoot. Jk, OP you should totally get an ar 7, it was designed by Eugene Stoner y'know. And it floats!
