Magpul MOE X-22 Stock for Ruger 10/22 - Lightweight Rimfire Upgrade

In this review the Magpul MOE X-22 Stock is examined as a straightforward, budget-friendly replacement for the Ruger 10/22 factory stock. The bottom line: it is for shooters who want a durable, featherweight platform that improves handling without a big price or weight penalty. The reviewer finds the stock's main selling point is its extremely light overall weight of about 18.9 ounces combined with thoughtful features such as M-LOK slots and Magpul's TSP texture that enhance grip and modularity for rimfire shooters.

Key Features

• Lightweight design: At roughly 18.9 ounces the stock cuts carry weight and shifts balance forward minimally for easier handling on the range or in the field.
• M-LOK compatibility: The 6 o'clock M-LOK slots allow adding accessories like bipods or small fore-end kit components without altering the core stock.
• TSP texture grip: Magpul's exclusive TSP texture improves purchase on the grip for more consistent cheek and hand position during rapid fire.
• Barrel tray options: Two diameter barrel trays support factory pencil and bull-barrel profiles so shooters can fit common 10/22 configurations without modification.
• Sling and ergonomics: Integral sling loops front and rear accept locking swivels and the ergonomic nylon butt-pad yields a 13.5 in length of pull for comfortable shoulder indexing.

Who It's For

The MOE X-22 is aimed at entry to intermediate rimfire shooters who want a light, reliable stock that upgrades ergonomics and modularity without spending a lot. It is especially well suited to trainers, plinkers, and hunters who value low weight and the ability to add a bipod or other M-LOK accessories.

Shooters seeking full chassis-level rigidity for precision competition or those who require integrated bedding systems should look elsewhere; the X-22 favors lean efficiency and versatility over heavy, precision-oriented construction.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Very light weight that improves carry and handling compared with the factory stock.
• M-LOK slots and barrel tray options add modularity for accessories and different barrel profiles.

• Integral sling loops simplify mounting of locking swivels without additional hardware.

Cons

• As a minimalist, budget-friendly stock it lacks heavy bedding or chassis features desired by precision competitors.
