# New Product Highlight: 8 More Updated Ruger 10/22 Models

A while back, Ruger revealed a new version of the 10/22 Standard. It looked largely unchanged, but a few important changes made it a little more competitive in the modern firearm industry.
Most of us probably assumed those changes would trickle out to the rest of the lineup, it looks like we were right because there are now **10 more updated Ruger 10/22 models**.
Let’s see which ones got the upgrades, and dig into what makes them even better than the Ruger 10/22 we know and love.

 **Ruger 10/22 Model 32024**
Joining the four [**updated 10/22 Standard models**](https://www.pewpewtactical.com/new-product-highlight-ruger-10-22/) are eight additional variants. These include takedown, ultralight, wood-stock, stainless steel, and optic-ready rifles and carbines. There’s something for everyone.
I’m particularly stoked about one with a Hogue stock, Picatinny rail, backup irons, and a heavy-contour threaded barrel. (There’s a link above if you need to buy one immediately.)
What makes these updated rifles different?
If there’s one thing I don’t love about the legacy 10/22, it’s the bolt release. The tiny tab locks the bolt to the rear easily enough, but I always feel like it wants me to do something different when it’s time to send the bolt forward again.
Ruger fixed that by giving each of the new models the match bolt release. This means all you have to do is slingshot the bolt handle to the rear and let it go – much more intuitive.
 **Ruger BX-Trigger**
The much-loved Ruger BX-Trigger also comes standard. Expect a lighter pull, cleaner break, shorter overtravel, and more positive reset compared to the 10/22 triggers you might be used to.
As someone who is a bit neurotic about firearm maintenance, it gives me great joy to tell you that Ruger also added a hole to the rear of the receiver that makes cleaning the rifle significantly easier. Given how dirty [**.22 LR ammo**](https://www.pewpewtactical.com/best-22-lr-rimfire-ammo/) is, that’s a real blessing.
Ruger lists an MSRP of **$299 to $529 for the 10/22.**
