Tactical Solutions X-Ring 16.5" Fluted & Threaded Silver Aluminum Barrel for Ruger 10/22 - .22 LR

If you're running a Ruger 10/22 and want to squeeze every bit of accuracy out of it without adding weight, the Tactical Solutions X-Ring 16.5" Fluted & Threaded Silver Aluminum Barrel is built for that job. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, this replacement barrel swaps into all standard Ruger 10/22 receivers and most aftermarket 10/22-pattern receivers, giving you a straightforward way to upgrade your rimfire's accuracy and handling without a gunsmith visit.

The accuracy comes from a rifled chromyle steel liner with a polished 11-degree crown—the kind of detail that matters when you're trying to print tight groups. The 16.5-inch length keeps the rifle handy in the field or at the range, while the fluted aluminum body keeps weight down to just 15 ounces. Threading at 1/2x28 opens the door to suppressors and compensators, letting you dial in your 10/22 exactly how you want it. The 1:16 twist rate is optimized for standard .22 LR ammunition.

Silver anodize gives it a clean, professional look that pairs well with most furniture and scope setups. Whether you're a precision .22 shooter, small-game hunter, or just someone who wants their 10/22 to perform at its best, this barrel delivers real improvement in both feel and function. Compatible with the Ruger SR-22 Rifle as well.
