The Ruger 10/22 Takedown combines the legendary reliability of the 10/22 platform with a convenient takedown design that allows the barrel and action to be quickly separated for compact transportation and storage. Disassembly is simple and secure—just lock the bolt to the rear, verify the rifle is unloaded, press the recessed takedown lever, and twist the subassemblies apart. The rifle features Ruger’s enhanced BX-Trigger®, delivering a crisp 2.5 to 3-pound trigger pull with minimal overtravel and a positive reset for improved shooting performance. A cold hammer-forged barrel is secured to the receiver by Ruger’s robust two-screw V-block system, providing outstanding durability and accuracy. Additional features include a detachable 10-round rotary magazine with Ruger’s proven rotary-feed design for reliable cartridge presentation, an oversized magazine release for easy magazine changes, and a match bolt release that allows the bolt to be released with a simple pull and release to the rear. The rifle also incorporates a positive push-button cross-bolt safety, a combination scope base adapter compatible with both Weaver-style and .22 tip-off mounts, and a heat-stabilized, glass-filled polymer trigger housing engineered for exceptional strength, impact resistance, and resistance to harsh environmental conditions. Built around Ruger’s time-tested action design, the 10/22 Takedown delivers the dependable performance that has made it one of the most popular rimfire rifles ever produced.
