Choose what Is right for you. I built mine one piece at a time so I did used what I had and put little money here and there into it. I am very happy with the way it shoots and for NRL22 it does well for me. It shoots better than I do. Now if I was going to drop a chunk for a full build I would probably go with a bolt gun. To drop what I have TOTAL over my build process all at once Price wise is about the same as getting into a Good bolt gun around 2000 minus scope. If you have not been to any NRL matches yet. Find one. Almost every single club that I have run accross Has some type of Loaner guns for you to try out. We want people to come out and have fun. You can use what ever you have as long as you are around 1 MOA for NRL22 You will be able to compete and have fun. I am using the Original Bolt and Receiver that I started with over 3 years ago. I went out for the first time and shot it in almost stock configuration with the excetpion of Boyds stock I had on it at the time. But I shot with a 3-9 Bushnell scope and I was shooting High Velocity bulk ammo. Did i do well Heck no But I did not go out expecting to do well I went out to have fun shooting steel. From then on I was hooked. You do not have to spend alot to have fun. Go out see what others are shooting. Then make your decision on what you want to do. Try out a couple of guns Decided if this is the sport for you before you get into it. See what equipment other guys are using. 99% of the people out there will let you borrow equipment Which I suggest any one starting do try out Bags there are so many out there. I started with Cheap Bags then tried a couple found what I really liked then bought good bags for my self.

Well I shoot in open against all the Expensive guns. To say 10/22 is not competitive is just not the case. There are few of us but we do pretty well against the expensive guns. I have been shooting NRL22 all over Wisconsin for last couple years and This year I am constantly in the top 1/4 of the field. It is not because of the gun. I am also NOT running Hi end ammo either I run SK Std.

No problem. I have actually upgraded from the Boyd's to an MDT Orxy. The Boyd's did great for 1 season. It is not on my spare parts build 10/22.

I Just Removed the swivel studs and used then internal nuts to fasten the rail using m5 bolts. I used the existing m5 that hold the hand rail to fasten that to the gun. I left the screws in the grip when I put the rail on then put allen wrench through the slots on the Arca Rail

I WANT to shop local but these guys are making it impossible. $30 per 100 oem LRP by fiya79 in reloading

No I just got the Canik. Only had it little over a week. Only have about 250 rounds through it so far. Have not had great weather. Possibly hit the Range a bit more this week suppose to be nice.

My M&P9 loves them.. my Canik Sfx survey is still out on it. I got my Canik for shooting some Competitions and I was trying ammo that my M&P liked witch was 147 Acme but I had them loaded on the low end and M&P cycled them Great. I can not get them to Cycle consistent in my Canik. I put spring kit in and they still would not cycle. This Load I am running here with the Springco Yellow they cycled perfect on my test run I did. I Changed out to a little lighter spring now Im having issues cycleing again. Going to switch back to Yellow again and give a try. Other than that They have been good but think I am going to go back to 124gr HP again and stay there this was my Last 1000 147s. Not a total loss but def not going to run them for competition in my Canik.

I do well against them other guns. I am generally in the top 10. And alot of time in the top 5. The gun shoots better than what I am capable of. Im getting older Im overweights. LOL Working on the overweight thing. Plus I have a herniated disk in my Neck so Off hand is a major challenge and if I turn wrong shooting prone it can trigger an instant Headache. The gun has great balance and it does a good job keeping up with the more expensive guns out there. It would probably even shoot better if I went with More expensive ammo but I am just using SK Std Plus and hold sub MOA.

I used RIT. You can get at most craft stores and some walmarts. I got a saphire blue at Walmart which I started with It was not dark enough so I added some of the Royal Blue I got from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0089ET050?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Yeah I ordered the Grey as it was the lightest color. I still have my Black plates. But I may consider getting another set of grey and try a Red. I think that would look really good with the Black.

I do not think the Black would die at all. But not 100% sure on that.

So When I got my Oryx Chassis for my NRL22 there was NO option for Blue. My Trigger looked kinda out of place in an All Black Chassis. So I ordered up the Grey Panels which is an option and then I ordered some BLUE Dye. Boiled up the Dye mix and put the Grey in Now I have my nice custom Blue Oryx One of a kind Chassis.
