I want to set up a braced 1022 charger for night time suppressed plinking/varmit control. I'm thinking either a 1x prism or red dot with a NV mode with a Sionyx mounted behind it, plus a Perst-1 for an additional aiming method. Seems like it would be fun and wouldn't wake the neighbors.

Im waiting on a Volquartsen Scorpion right now, have a sf can, gonna do a 1 MOA trijicon RMR and a surefire x400v on it for nightime plinky boog.

Almost got one of those rifles a bit ago. What are your thoughts on it?
|
|
You can zero to like three rifles with those FLIRs right? That's not a bad idea. I was planning on getting a thermal this year anyways.

I just have a 10/22, but would love a front rail to shoot skunks.

It even has a binary trigger, though I've only used that operationally once, when I came around the shed and thought to myself "wait why is this raccoon on the ground, wait what's that white stripe showing on its back in my nods, OH SHIT" View Quote |

So I am not sure it would support the 1.7lb weight of a clip-on without bending a bit. Attached File I inquired with MDT to see if their Remington 700 extended rail could be adapted to a Ruger 10/22 and they said no. For years I have been using a monoloc with an old Leupold 2-7 compact. The glass is not great so anything beyond 4x the center of the image gets bad. Currently I am investigating if a NV rail can be incorporated into the stock of an after market Ruger stock, but not sure if the price will be tolerable. |

My 22lr rifle is an (old now) integrally suppressed Marlin 780. Ciener made. Laugh out loud quiet. Other people on the deck with me don't notice. I love that rifle.
Many of the smaller varmints can be VERY hard to see in NV, even when I know exactly where they are and illuminate with IR light. I found that thermal is vastly superior and suggest it if you have one. If you don't have thermal, consider having a white light source in case the critter is impossible to find through the NV with added IR light. While a dim-as-usefully-possible white light lets an unaided eye see normally and works fine for the NV aided eye as well, sometimes you will have to flip the NV out of the way and shoot with white light and the optic you chose for aiming. Beware that mounting a thermal or a NVG on any rifle can be problematic, because often the eyepiece is way too far forward. You can't get close enough to the eyepiece to see the field of view. Find a rail that reaches farther back toward the shooter than one intended for a scope. |

It’s a wicked night vermin rifle, blows dillos in half and takes out coyotes to 100 yards.
Plus it is suppressed now too |

So far my preferred method of locating them, once the dog has barked them up a tree or have a rough area pinpointed, is to turn on the illuminator on my 14, or use the vampire scout light in IR mode. It reflects off their eyes and makes them really stand out. That's just my particular AO and threat though, I'm sure different critters in other areas are easier to locate by different means. All I know is they aren't getting at my chickens and that's what really matters here. |

Thermal works great on rats, mice, coons, dillos, etc.
They can run, but they cannot hide. |

Quoted: Franklin. Didn't tune anything. If I'm doing a mag dump in binary it'll sometimes have this odd dead trigger malfunction. Hammer is back, trigger is dead, round remains unfired.

Yea, I had a few of the echo triggers. Sold them due to the mim hammers starting to deform. I’ll try the franklin out. Seems like it would be really fun on a .22. Right. I looked at them when right to bear had the Christmas special for 230. Sat on the fence and they were all gone when I went back. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Quoted: I have been asking here on ARF and a few other places about an extended rail for my 10/22 so I can mount a clip-on in front of a LPVO . Once member responded with what he put together using a bunch of risers and a Pulsar mount, but it was way to busy for me. Others have suggested a Leapers Tactical Scout Slim Rail but some others have said it is flimsy. So I am not sure it would support the 1.7lb weight of a clip-on without bending a bit. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/81561/Leapers_jpg-1223915.JPG I inquired with MDT to see if their Remington 700 extended rail could be adapted to a Ruger 10/22 and they said no.

Not meaning to hijack, but I’m thinking this build out and I really want to run a longer rail so I can use a cnvd.
What can would work well for using under a handguard? I’ve never set up a rifle like that, but seems to be the ticket here. |

Not 22, but 9mm with my Flir PTS233.
killed a 353 (tape measure estimate) hog this week with it. Large 9mm killed hog. PTS233 |

Put it on the back burner for now tho, pretty invested in a V22 build. With a Manners and efr rail up front, it looks to be exciting. View Quote I have a CZ455 and am looking for a setup like that.
