10/22 Barrel Retaining Dovetail and Extractor Slot Dimensions?

Does anyone here know or have a nice print for the dovetail Barrel retention slot (for VBlock)? Also looking for the extractor slot angle with respect to the barrel retention slot flat. The extractor slot also seems off center a bit.

Any drawing showing these details are greatly appreciated.

Thanks Ryan
 
You might want to, look up, the Gun Smith that makes, the Lil' Crow Gunworks, GRX, "recoil Lug" for Rugers on, youTube and give him a call.
He would probably know, the Angle and Slot size on, the barrels.
I put one of, his recoil Lugs, a new Volqt. Extractor & Firing Pin and a New, Green Mountain 20" barrel, on my Ruger 10-22 about, 2-3 weeks ago and ALL, "fit", FINE ! Yes, the Extractor cut is, "offset" on the barrels, "face" ! I just wiggled, the Frozen Barrel in the action, til' the new Volqt. Extractor, looked centered in, the "cut" and tightened the screws back and forth and kept re-checking, alignment as, I tightened the screws ! Flawless, Extraction and NO,.. FTF's !

Thanks for the advise...it’s a tricky one to cut on the mill.
 
I see, you're cutting IT ( barrel slots ) yourself,.. aside from finding an, old Factory Ruger barrel "take off" to, measure / duplicate or, the Prints,.. a tough one !
Good Luck !

Dovetail slot turns out to be pretty easy...but I missed the extractor slot a bit....made it work though. Very odd design. Made a barrel from a blank (I chambered with Bentz Reamer), channeled and free floated the original stock and milled the end off. Just need to bed it now. $50 stainless Green Mountain Barrel..saved a few $and had some fun cutting it myself. 5D8C4F07-0672-4175-B780-E0FF03ED59C2.jpeg
 
I ground one with a Dremel. Worked great. I like to cone them now. I ground a bit to match the shape of extractor claw.

Nice looking rifle you built.

Just playing around to see if I can make a cheap 10/22 into a shooter. I used JB weld putty to bed it in critical locations...I’ll never use anything else again! Goes on like play dough and dries quickly with no mess! Who knew?!?
 
Your Rifle, looks pretty much the same as mine ! Mine has, the Sporter ( longer ) Stock and Silver receiver with, the 20" Green Mtn., "Sporter barrel" (.650 Muzzle dia) it shoots, AMAZING ! And with, the Volqtz Firing Pin and Extractor the Gun, "works", flawlessly ! Green Mtn makes great Barrels, ESPECIALLY for, the Price ! Glad it all came together for you ! Did you look up, the Lil' Crow Gunwork's, "recoil Lug" ?
I glass bedded around, the Lug and 2" of the Barrels "Shank" portion for, awesome, REPEATABLE, accuracy !
