I was wondering what do you consider to be the most accurate 10/22 you have ever fired. For me it was a 10/22 made in 2013 called the LVT. 50 yds. 3 shots, one hole. It was a factory dealer exclusive with a stainless or matte barrel option. The barrel was varmint contour, but had some taper to it, and was 20" IIRC. It came with a checkered hardwood stock. You don't see them for sale very often, but mine was uncanny accurate! You?
 
That would be my old mans magnum research 17hmr. A friend of mine has one he built with a 22lr Kidd barrel and bolt which is also pretty impressive shooting cci standard.
 
Most accurate for me was the one I built.

Ruger receiver & trigger group
Power customs target hammer
Clerk brand 16" heavy barrel
Unknown bolt buffer
BSA Sweet .22 (4 - 12X ??) adjustable objective lens

My son and I could smack prairie dogs to 125 yes or so all day long with it. I passed it down to him.
 
I have one. It is the most accurate out of the box 10/22 I've ever fired. My bolt action Tikka T1x is the most accurate 22 I own. And I have a 10/22 I put together with a heavier target barrel that is slightly more accurate than the LVT. But it is heavier than I want to hunt with.

They came in all blue, all stainless, or like mine with blue receiver and stainless barrel. I really wish I'd bought a 2nd one while they were available. They are quite accurate, just heavy enough to hold steady, but not too heavy to carry while hunting. The 20" medium weight barrel, a stock designed for adults, and with no barrel band makes for the perfect 10/22 IMO. I have been told LVT stood for Light Varmint/Tactical. But I've never seen that in print anywhere.

On top with my CZ.
