What do you want out of the rifle? Just a plinker? A target rifle?

For what it's worth, by the time you buy a standard model and build it up with aftermarket parts to make a target rifle, you have WAY more expense into it than you would have had into the 10/22 Target. Now, if you have VERY high expectations for accuracy and performance, then you'll be looking at a custom rifle anyway, so none of the Ruger models are sufficient from factory.

The target rifle will deliver 1MOA out of the box. A little better ammo and a better trigger and you'll kick under 1MOA pretty easily.

Personally, I have NO use for any rifle with a "barrel band", so that'd be the one that I would avoid. If you're just looking for a plinker, then pretty much any of them will suit you just fine.
