Re: Got out of the 10/22 business today

1. Don't over tighten screws in an aluminum receiver.
2. If you don't like the wood stock get a factory plastic stock. IMHO, Butler Creek is over rated and over priced.

3. Stick with factory magazines.
4. Forget the scope and add a rear peep and front firesight.

To me the 94 handles and carries a little better than the 336. The ease of maint., strength, accuracy and the ability to mount scopes on the 336 makes it a much better rifle than the 94 for me.
