I recently purchased a Ruger 10/22 Takedown, and when I got home I noticed a small pit and some markings that run along the front part of the receiver sub-assembly.

I don't know enough about metal properties/tolerances, so my question is, should I be concerned about this?
welcome from nevada! if you're primarily concerned about the larger, oval-ish one in the middle, i wouldn't be-- mine has that, too. i imagine that's probably got something to do with when it was poured/cast. the other 'scratches' look pretty minor to me, but all i know is what mine looks like. have you had it out shooting yet?
Your responses to my question greatly helped to ease my mind.

Thanks again, gentlemen... I'm looking forward to getting acquainted with this rifle.

With my Ruger 10/22 Take-down, shots are wild, spread L/R/U/D 6 inches using CCI 22lr Suppresser or 22lr Mini-Mag ammo. Without the suppressor, both ammos...
Hey everyone, I have two butler creek 25 round mags, bought brand new a few months ago, and I’ve only used them twice.
I keep having issues with the first 6 or 7 rounds in each mag. It will load and fore the first round, and either won’t pick up the second round, or it will pop straight up and...
