Cap,
I have a Hogue Bull Barrel on my 10/22 and it will shoot a gnat's ass at 60 yards. I have the Hogue stock on it too but I don't believe the Hogue Bros are doing the barrels anymore. Volquartzen makes some awesome stuff for the 10/22's but I'd bet you would be just as satisfied with the performance of that Green Mtn barrel. While in the process of building my rifle up from stock I sort of had to remind myself with a slap in the face that it's still a .22 Rimfire. I came to that conclusion just after dumping about $800 into it with the stock, barrel, and the Leupold 12x fixed power scope! I saved some money by having my 'smith work the trigger rather than spending the coin on a Volquaartzen which I was about to do. If I did it again I'd stick with the less expensive barrel and spend more on the trigger because Ruger 10/22 triggers truly are crap!
Edit:
BTW, I just looked at ebaY and there are a few combos for sale there. One is the Hogue stock and Green Mtn barrel for a Buy It Now price of $189 US.
