I have the same stainless model as the OP and had a local gunsmith install a set of Tech Sights (MXT200), which work great. I haven't done any groupings, but when I go out in the woods, it is no problem picking off little pieces of clay pigeon left over on the embankment, although that was only 30 yards. I usually shoot CCI quiets with a suppressor but had similar luck, although slightly different POI, using CB shorts out of a modified 10/22 mag I got off of eBay. It's a fun gun and I plan on using it to help teach my kids to shoot. If you are in the market for a bolt action 22, there are a lot of great choices, but the Ruger American Rimfire would be on my short list.
I have one I got in trade from another NWFA member. Mine has a NIkon Prostaff Rimfire 4 x 32 scope on it. I absolutely love this thing. Mine is not threaded, but that is not a big deal.
Way more accurate than any other .22lr I have shot, though my custom 10/22 comes close. Both eat any and all .22lr ammo I have fed it.
Awesome way to spend an afternoon. Love my Rugers.......
