How are these sights installed ?

Is there any drilling or tools required ? What about if the stock 10/22 barrel is used ?

TS157 .920 Barrel Dovetail Adaptor allows the use of TSR100 & TSR200 sighting systems to be used with .920 target barrel equipped 10/22s. The adaptor is a slip fit over the end of the barrel and is locked in place with thread lock compound. The adaptor is machined from 4140 alloy steel with manganese phosphate finish and has a 3/8" dovetail.

From the same link, a little further down the page.

No drilling required. An allen grub screw is uesed for the front sight, the allen key comes with the sights. A small screw driver is needed to remove the screws from the 10/22 receiver were the rear sight screws go.

the only simi-difficult part is knocking out the old front site.
A good vise goes a loooong way.

Just lay the rifle down and support the barrel with a rolled up towel and using a brass drift punch tap the factory sight out from left to right. Reinstall from right to left. If you dont have a brass punch, a regular punch will work if you dont mind a little marring on the sight.

And don't be surprised if you have to hit it pretty hard to get it out. Mine wouldn't budge until I smacked it real hard. Once it breaks free and starts to move its easy.
