Powder River Precision build

[Caballero2]

Has anyone ever used a Powder River Precision Rubicon 22lr receiver/ bolt/trigger group for a build? It would be used for long gong (300yrds), 22 sniper match from 50yds to 250, and occasional bench rest 50 to 100 yrds. I saw one on YouTube, RimfireSS channel. Don put a Lilja barrel on it and it shot lIghts out. Just curious if anyone had used one and what they thought of it.
I have a factory CZ457 MTR and a Hole Shot 2500X bolt guns that I use in bench rest competitions but would also like to get a nice semi auto to shoot in that class also.
Thanks, Joe

I have a B14R and a Holeshot Nitro that I shoot in ARA BR. Here’s my 10/22 from parts, that I use for fun matches and a backup if I have a problem with my UL rifle

Glgeiger,
Did you build the 10-22 or have it built ? How does it shoot ? Barrel ? Internals ?

I recently received my Lilja barrel and finally got to do some ammo testing. I tested with a 10 round mag and a single round sled that I bought on ebay. It was a great day, 60’s and almost no wind.
I’m very happy with the results. Our benchrest matches are 50,75 and 100 yards that rotate monthly.The target pics are 50 yards. I have not experienced a 10/22 receiver this smooth before. I included a pic of the action with its centered over the bolt, recoil rod and spring. I was not shooting for bullseyes, just groups.
The Lapua CenterX 1073 fps was consistent with the 10 rd mag but seemed to be a little better with the sled. It did not shoot well at 100 yds. I tried the lot of CenterX 1069 fps at 100 yds and it shot really well, but was subpar at 50 yards. I will shoot the 1073 fps at 50&75, and shoot the 1069 fps at 100.
Overall I’m very pleased with it. It will definitely be competitive in the semi auto category of our benchrest matches.
