10/22 Precision Rifle Shooting (PRS) rifle Build

Hi guys
I need a little help, sorry, advice. I want to build a 10/22 precision rifle. I know Kidd actions are awesome, but they are not available up here in Canada. Who makes a receiver that will be great with a Kidd two stage trigger, bolt, bolt handle and barrel.

I would love to have a Volquartsen receiver, but I’ve heard that the Kidd two stage triggers are not compatible

Please let me know who makes a great and accurate receiver, preferably Stainless Steel.

Thank you very much

If you are intending PRS type competition (or shooting at longer distances) you will most likely need a +30-ish MOA base. If the integrated base on the Kidd receiver shown is not ~+30MOA, it will not likely work for you. There really aren't any 10/22 "accurate receivers" as there is LOTS of slop in the bolt/action regardless of brand. (I have Fedderson and Ruger - no difference.) The accuracy will be in your barrel - get a good one (I have a Kidd SS match - excellent with the right ammo). The Kidd 2-stage trigger is the way to go (I have two). The precision limitation of your build will be AMMO. You will need to find a brand/type and LOT that work best. (I've had one-small-hole lots of SKLRM, and SKLRM lots that shoot like a shotgun.) Concentrate on barrel and ammo. You might also consider adding a tuner.

PS - LOTS of responders will tell you NOT to go semi for PRS. I love mine.

Hi guys
Thank you very much for your replies. Beautiful 10/22’s you guys have. This rifle will be short range PRS shooting 100-200y. Still like to have a Volquartsen receiver with all the rest of the parts being Kidd. Also like a receiver where I can add a 30 moa rail.
