For years, shooters have believed that to get true tack-driving precision from a rimfire rifle, you had to use a bolt-action. In this episode of the Guns Podcast US, host Brent Wheat and co-host Roy Huntington sit down to shatter the long-standing myth about the inaccuracy of semi-automatic rimfires.  &amp;nbsp;Roy shares his recent hands-on experience with the incredibly lightweight and hyper-accurate Ruger 10\/22 Carbon Fiber. Weighing in at under 4 pounds and boasting a crisp 2.25-pound match trigger, this rifle completely blew Roy away \u2014 delivering one-hole groups at 50 yards and even letting him shoot a wasp right in half! The days of spending thousands on aftermarket parts to make a 10\/22 accurate might be officially over.  Listen in as they discuss the golden age of firearm manufacturing, how modern CNC machining has drastically improved factory rifles, and why this sub-$650 out-of-the-box rifle is an absolute game-changer for squirrel hunters, weekend competitors, and plinking enthusiasts alike.  Key Takeaways  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The traditional myth that semi-auto .22 LR rifles cannot rival bolt-action accuracy has been shattered by modern factory designs.  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Ruger's new 10\/22 Carbon Fiber model weighs less than 4 pounds and comes factory-equipped with a match-grade stainless steel barrel and a custom 2.25-pound trigger.  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; During testing with CCI Subsonic ammunition, the Ruger 10\/22 Carbon Fiber consistently shot ragged, one-hole groups at 50 yards.  \u00b7&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; At an MSRP of roughly $650, the Ruger 10\/22 Carbon Fiber delivers performance that previously required $1,500 to $2,000 in custom aftermarket parts to achieve.  Modern CNC and EDM manufacturing processes have ushered in a golden age of firearms, making high-precision, sub-MOA guns readily available straight out of the box. --&amp;nbsp; The Guns Podcast is presented by EOTech.
