Availability: In Stock
The Faxon Firearms 22LR 16" Straight Fluted barrel is a lightweight upgrade for Ruger 10/22 rifles that brings AR-platform barrel quality to rimfire shooting. Built from 416-R stainless steel at Faxon's Cincinnati facility, this barrel combines precision manufacturing with practical weight savings—tipping the scales at just 1.4 lbs—making it ideal for shooters who want a responsive, handy platform for plinking, small-game hunting, or precision rimfire work.
Faxon machines every barrel from raw stock and subjects each one to rigorous quality control, including magnetic particle inspection to catch internal defects. The straight fluted profile you get here delivers that performance-minded aesthetic while reducing rotating mass compared to standard factory 10/22 barrels. You're looking at 6-groove rifling with a 1:16 twist, a recessed target crown for clean bullet release, and a stainless steel finish—all the hallmarks of Faxon's approach to barrel building.
The 16" length strikes a practical balance: short enough for handling in tight quarters, long enough to wring out the .22LR's velocity and accuracy potential. Whether you're setting up a dedicated rimfire training rig, a suppressed plinker, or a lightweight hunting carbine, this barrel gives you the craftsmanship and attention to detail that separate purpose-built components from commodity replacements. A straightforward, no-nonsense upgrade for shooters who refuse to compromise on quality, even in rimfire.
| Caliber | .22 LR |
| Barrel Length | 16" |
| Material | 416-R Stainless Steel |
| Finish | Stainless |
| Rifling | 6 Groove, 1:16 Twist |
| Crown Type | Recessed Target Crown |

| Profile | Straight Fluted |
Yes. The Faxon 16" Straight Fluted barrel is designed as a drop-in replacement for standard Ruger 10/22 platforms.
The Faxon rimfire barrel weighs 1.4 lbs. Factory 10/22 barrels are typically heavier, so the weight savings come from both the material selection and the fluted profile design, which removes material without sacrificing strength.
This barrel is finished in stainless steel. Faxon also offers salt bath nitride and PVD finishes on other rimfire barrel models, but this model ships in stainless.
The straight fluted profile reduces weight and rotating mass while maintaining the structural integrity needed for .22LR precision. The recessed target crown and 6-groove rifling with 1:16 twist are engineered to deliver consistent, accurate performance.
