What kind of experience are users having with this rifle as to reliability in function and accuracy? I own one and would like to hear what others have to say.
 
I was just wondering the same thing and have been considering adding one to my collection. If it is anything like the 10/22 .22 LR it should be a very good rifle. I hope someone can enlighten us on this subject..
 
I have a 10/22T and 10/22M and enjoy shooting both of them. The 10/22M is never going to be as accurate as the 10/22T but that's because the 10/22T has a bull barrel and the 10/22M does not (Hint to Ruger: How about a 10/22M with a bull barrel). However, with concentration and practice I've come close. I fire the 10/22T at 50 yards and the 10/22M at 100. I had one of the earlier models and it had ejection problems with every thing I fed it (I've talked to others and it appears that this was a common problem). It went back to Ruger for repair and since then the reliablity has been flawless. It gets the best groups with CC Maxi Mag and CCI Maxi Mag TNT.
 
Why is it the further you get from the 22LR the more in accurate the rifle? Why can't they make a Mini-14 with a Bull barrel?
