CPC: TLC for Ruger Rimfires

is the place to send your Ruger 10/22 or 77/22 (or 77/22magnum, 77/17, 77/22 Hornet, Mini-14/30, or High Standard pistol) to be tuned up and turned into a tack-driver.

After gunsmithing centerfire rifles for years, CPC started gunsmithing the Ruger 10/22 in late 1994, then by customer demand added other .22 caliber firearms to its list. It was noted that most centerfire gunsmiths seemed not to take the .22 rimfire as a serious study. The 77/22 gunsmithing demand, especially in the .22 WMR, came next, with the now famous .22 K-Hornet rework following. CPC keeps some of the semi-auto centerfire skills going with the Ruger Mini 14/30 items.

The idea is to accurize firearms using skilled labor instead of crappy add on parts.
  • CPC reworks the factory trigger pull to a lightened excellent single stage trigger, removing slack and creep and adding an overtravel stop.
  • CPC sets barrels back then fits a rotating reamer pilot exactly to the individual bore diameter and hand chambers. This totally concentric chamber throat, at minimum depth, creates accuracy.
  • CPC indicates the bore within .0002", then cuts a new 11° recessed target crown sharp for more accuracy. Same with new barrels.
  • CPC reworks the bolt to eliminate flyers.
Their prices aren't cheap, but you do get what you pay for, and the two week to two month turnaround time is pretty good for a custom gunsmith.
