Advantage Charging Handle and Picatinny Rail for Ruger® 10/22®

The "Advantage" charging handle with Picatinny scope base solved both problems. I wanted the charging lever on the left side and a different rail for the 10/22. Easy to install and it works.

When I first saw this Charging handle offered by TANDEMKROSS a while ago, I did not feel the need to own one. Now that I shoot Steel/Rimfire Challenge, I decited to get one for my Ruger 10/22. Shooting fast at any competitions requires that your Ruger 10/22 Rifle is in tip top shape, and if you have a jam or misfire, you need to clear the Rifle as fast as you can. By using the Advantage Charging handle, it gives you the abilibly to do just that. By not losing your grip, you are able to clear the jam and continue to shoot fast. It is ironic that TAMDEMKROSS named this product "ADVANTAGE" , because it does indeed give you the Advantage when shooting FAST!

went in easily. didn't try yet, winter. can't get out

This charging handle, out of the box, will not work with Leapers brand scope rings. After installation according to the instructions, the right side of the unit which moves the stock charging handle was making contact with the bottom of the forward scope ring and binding. Some work with a dremel was needed to allow the handle to move freely under the front ring. It then operated as claimed, and is a great addition for left handed shooters.

The quality is great and it is a pleasure to use my support hand to charge the rifle.

This is by fare the most functional upgrade u can put on your 10/22. I like using mine to train with and having to reach around is not realistic training and can set a bad habit for the real deal. It does seem to be a little sticky in operation when not installed but works flawless when installed. I put this on the new sr 10/22 AR yes youdo have to take the oem railoff and it does not marry up to the rest of the oem furniture. But function over looks or youre wrong. Wi am going to need a riser or high rings to get correct eye relief.(“pepper” mount wont work either) only thing id like to see is that the charging handle actuator that operates the opposite side handle has a rubber bumper. Id really like to see that changed to delron or teflon for durability reasons. Regardless it will work metal to metal and wont hurt a thing. O btw there are other products that allow ambi charging but cost over 200$ this is by far the cheapest product that facilitates ambi charging

Well built looks great , easy and fast to use .

This makes it so much nicer to hold with your right hand and charge it with your left. No more swapping between hands. Built well and has a nice rail on top

Seems to be of OK quality but not what I have seen in other TK products. The statement ‘The precision machined picatinny rail’ is true I suppose, but the rail mount is plastic (nylon?). I’m not sure of the choice of making the base out of plastic instead of milling the whole Rail / mount form a single piece of aluminium. I can only assume it is due to how difficult / expensive the whole part would be to produce if it was made like this. We will have to see about the long-term stability of this. My main issue was the clearance between the charging handle and the bottom of the scope rings when fitted. The handle was binding on the bottom of the rings where they clamp onto the pik rail. I tried 3 different sets of rings and they were all doing the same thing. I ended up grinding about 1mm from the bottom of the pik clamps on the rings to get enough clearance. Not what I expected to have to do. This may have been the issue that some others have commented on about it being difficult to pull at the start and not pulling back far enough.
