Magnum Research Ultra Replacement Barrel 18" .22 LR Black Aluminum, Suppressor Ready for Ruger 10/22 Takedown

The Magnum Research Ultra Replacement Barrel is a precision 18-inch .22 LR barrel engineered for Ruger 10/22 Takedown rifles. With a suppressor-ready threaded muzzle and black aluminum construction, this drop-in barrel gives you a lightweight upgrade path for modular 10/22 shooting. Whether you're building a dedicated subsonic host, transitioning to a compact rifle setup, or simply want a fresh, quality barrel for your 10/22, the Ultra design delivers the accuracy and durability that makes the 10/22 platform enduringly popular for target shooting, small-game hunting, and plinking.

Magnum Research's patented aluminum tensioning system is key to the Ultra's performance. The precision engineering maintains the barrel under controlled stress to minimize vibration and thermal drift—factors that matter when you're dialing in accuracy at 50 yards or beyond. The threaded muzzle accepts standard .22 LR suppressors and muzzle devices, making this barrel a smart choice if you're serious about quiet, subsonic shooting or want suppressor compatibility without modification.

Swapping barrels on your 10/22 Takedown is straightforward, and Magnum Research's Ultra maintains the rifle's modular appeal. At 18.4 ounces, it's light enough for all-day shooting without adding fatigue. The 18-inch profile balances portability with sight radius, a practical middle ground for hunters and shooters who value both handling and sight distance.
