Another vote for a BX trigger, no matter which version you get.

Damn
Your LVT looks like a great all-round 10-22. Mine sports a heavy bull-barrel and it's a bit too heavy for carrying it a long ways in the woods...provides steady shooting, though.

I’ve got eleven 10-22’s, or maybe a couple more. Some are factory configuration while others have been heavily modified.
One of my favorites is my Charger. Copper Custom brace or stock adapter, suppressed, binary trigger… fast & surprisingly accurate.
More conventional is my 2013 Mannlicher stocked 10-22.

I won mine at a match. I put a rear aperture sight and a military sling on it, and in that configuration, it’s an excellent rifle for something like an Appleseed event. It’d make a decent small game rifle as well. In the accuracy department, it’s just ok, so if out-of-the-box target accuracy is what one is looking for, there are better options, IMO.

Between peoples ability, expectations and each particular rifles build tolerances account for huge swings in performance.
I’m not a crack shot but in my 55 years of shooting I’ve owned a couple dozen 10-22’s and owned some that shoot better than others. None are what I’d call target guns, not even the ones Ruger called “Target” guns.
For me the 10-22 is fun to shoot and upgrade and have found them to be a great trainers for 7 of my 11 grandkids (not all are ready to start shooting yet)

I'd forgotten about My other 10-22 which was in SS . I say was because it's NO longer a .22 RF but rather a slick little .17 HM2 .
Had a close Gunsmith friend bore and sleeve it , also floated the barrel and it's an impressively accurate little sucker . Great for under 100 yd. vermin ,absolutely destroys voles . The other Rifle is My 1955- Model 722 .222 aka Triple Deuce , which is a one ragged hole 0-300 Yd. larger vermin dispenser .
