The Iota Outdoors Hyrax 22 Creedmoor barrel is a drop-in replacement barrel built for serious varmint shooters who demand precision and durability. This 18-inch varmint-profile barrel in 22 Creedmoor gives you the ballistic efficiency and extended range of the cartridge in a package that's still handy in the field or at the bench. Chambered in 22 Creedmoor — a flat-shooting, low-recoil round ideal for prairie dogs, coyotes, and long-range varmint work — the Hyrax delivers the velocity and accuracy you need without excessive muzzle blast or jump.
Built from 416R stainless steel and finished with Melonite coating, this barrel resists corrosion and wear from repeated use and cleaning. The #5 contour strikes a balance: substantial enough for repeatable, accurate shooting but not so heavy that you're carrying dead weight in rough country. The 18-inch length keeps your rifle nimble and slings easily, while still giving the 22 Creedmoor enough barrel time to reach its potential. Whether you're swapping barrels on a modular platform or re-barreling a bolt gun, the Hyrax is engineered to the tolerances that serious reloaders and precision shooters expect.
Iota Outdoors focuses on the shooter who understands that ammunition, brass, and barrels are extensions of skill and load development. This barrel is made for hunters and varmint hunters who reload, tune their loads, and want a quality component that won't hold them back.

The 22 Creedmoor is a 6mm Creedmoor necked down to 22 caliber. It's a flat-shooting, high-velocity cartridge popular for varmint hunting and long-range target shooting. It delivers excellent ballistics for prairie dogs, coyotes, and other small-to-medium game out to extended distances with minimal recoil.
Melonite is a surface hardening and corrosion-resistant coating applied to the 416R stainless steel. It protects the barrel from rust and wear, extends the life of the steel, and requires minimal maintenance compared to bare stainless.
