I would stay away from the tac-sol barrels I didn't get as much accuracy I wanted out of mine although they are a very lightweight bbl if you're just going for the look. I'll second the brimstone trigger job, I have a tier 1 in my bench 10/22 and it's the best trigger in any of my rifles. If you're wanna go cheap go to rimfirecentral.com and talk to Que and check out the superstock section. Que refaces the bolt and barrel as well as any other modification you can get out of a stock 10/22 barrel and bolt for a reasonable price. I think it was just over $100 for 2 bolts and 2 barrels last time I had him do some work but I didn't have him do to much. I have one rifle with the Kidd "trigger job kit" and it's a nice trigger but it's almost a bench trigger with how lite it is 2-2.25 lbs. I did the volquertsen sear in a buddy's son 10/22 and it did clean the trigger up, pretty much made it the way the rifle should have been from the factory, you probably could get the same effect it did with just some light stoning of a stock sear. The big thing I recommend is getting a new cocking assembly or polish the stock one you'll be surprised at how much better theses little rifles function with that mod.
