Format: Paperback
Mark White can clearly upgrade the 10/22 into an interesting firearm, but not likely applicable to most 10/22 owners. Some of this book might be useful, and most might be interesting, but it lacks basics and dwells on the esoteric.
White spends considerable space with barrel machining, which most of us cannot do, and suppressors, which, though interesting, are marginally legal, require federal registration, illegal in many states, and beyond the machining capabilities of most 10/22 owners.
Things we CAN do are generally ignored, especially installing new barrels and stocks, which are easily within the capabilities of most 10/22 owners and given only passing mention in this "Ultimate" guide book. There is NO mention of procedures for checking inletting on stocks, barrel floating, or determining allowable contact points between the receiver and barrel and stock, all critical to the 10/22 owner who might purchase a "100% drop-in" barrel and stock combination.

This is the most complete treatise covering the 10/22 that I have been able to find. While the 10/22 is a fairly simple rifle, there are a great many modifications that may be made. This book covers most of the modifications in a general sense and a few in detail. Those looking for an 'advanced' users manual will be elated. Those looking for something akin to Jerry Kunhausen's gunsmithing series will be disappointed. Excellent: The notes on maintenance and general 'sprucing up' of the action, as well as disassembly work. Disappointing: The trigger job information will improve the trigger in terms of creep, but not really reduce its' incredibly heavy pull. (The author simply states that new (pre-jobbed) hammers may be had at great expense. Overall, worth having if you're a 10/22 buff, but ripe to be replaced if someone wants to try.

Although there was quite a bit of technical detail in the book, only about 10% of it would ever apply to a normal, everyday 10/22 shooter. This is not a book for a person who just bought a 10/22 and wants to get the most out of it right out of the box; it's more geared towards an advanced user that might have several and a lot of gunsmithing equipment and know-how. The author spends inordinate amounts of time discussing the various barrel metals, drilling cleaning holes in receivers, firelapping, and on silencers, which most of us could never afford the fee for anyway. The book's tone is also slightly condescending, I thought, towards anyone who doesn't think exactly as he does. I'm not trying to say this was a bad book, just that it's not worth $10.00 for a new owner or everyday shooter.

only learned a few things from the book that I would not from looking on the Internet. The pictures are not that good, black and white, not a lot of detail.

I was anticipating a manual for assembly and field stripping the 10/22, as Rugers included instruction pamphlet is definitively not up to the task. Instead I received a manual on how to build a silencer... nice, but not what I wanted.

This book has some good content on the 10/22, but most of it is extremely technical and doesn't apply to the everyday owner. It reminds me of some of the other old-school gun books I have read, which isn't a bad thing. The Whole thing just feels a tad dated.

Author wasted too many pages on unnecessary info where he could have had more pics, and include some basic drawings with dims included, and the pics included were dark and lacked detail. The author mentions his designs in great length about muzzle brakes on 22's and 50 cal and describes them, well thats great but if you go thru that trouble to talk about them why not include some pics or drawings of your work. I'm sure the author makes some great stuff and good quality at that, but when you write a book so you can teach others give more detail then just words. The suppressor part was all text with a few flashy pics of them finished and installed, no drawings with specs.

Not only is this book surprisingly full of information about the Ruger 10/22, it includes a serious primer concerning the components of a long gun, types of manufacturing and machining and the resulting pros and cons for the serious shooter.

This is not a do-it-yourself full-on gunsmith course, but is chock full of information on how to do intermediate work, specifically on the Ruger 10/22, and will provide a plethora of information for a moderately informed shooter.

Knowledge of your firearm is generally necessary to get the most out of it or to improve it. This book goes a very long way toward fully informing the Ruger 10/22 owner of the various elements of the rifle, how to maintain it, and how to improve it.

I am glad I got it!
