Faxon Rimfire 16″ Straight Fluted 416R Nitride Bull Threaded 10/22 Barrel

The Faxon Rimfire 16″ Straight Fluted 416R Nitride Bull Threaded 10/22 Barrel delivers precision performance and exceptional durability for rimfire enthusiasts seeking improved accuracy from their Ruger 10/22 or compatible platform. Machined in-house from premium 416R stainless steel, this barrel is built to offer long-lasting performance with the same quality standards found in Faxon’s centerfire lineup. Its straight fluted bull profile adds stiffness and enhances barrel harmonics while also shedding unnecessary weight and improving heat dissipation.

Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, this barrel features 6-groove button rifling and a 1:16 twist rate optimized for standard and high-velocity .22 LR ammunition. The rifling design minimizes bullet deformation and fouling, allowing for better gas seal and consistent velocities across a variety of loads. Whether you’re plinking, competing in precision rimfire matches, or target shooting, this barrel provides the accuracy and consistency needed to tighten your groups and push performance to the next level.

Finished inside and out with a salt bath nitride treatment, this barrel resists corrosion, abrasion, and fouling for extended life and easier maintenance. The exterior finish also offers a clean matte appearance that complements most builds. With a standard 1/2×28 TPI muzzle thread, the barrel is ready for your preferred muzzle brake, compensator, or rimfire suppressor. A recessed target crown ensures uniform gas exit at the muzzle, helping to maintain accuracy with every shot.

At 16 inches long and weighing approximately 2.2 lbs, this bull barrel delivers the stability and consistency that rimfire shooters demand without excessive front-end bulk. It is compatible with the Ruger 10/22 and other similar platforms, allowing for easy installation and reliable fitment in most aftermarket receivers and chassis systems.
