The Faxon Firearms Match Series 12B216N18Lhq-T is a heavy-profile replacement barrel built for 10/22 shooters who want real accuracy upgrades without the custom gunsmith bill. This 18.5-inch barrel is machined from 416-R stainless steel and finished in nitride, giving you a tough, corrosion-resistant bore that handles regular use and the occasional neglect. Whether you're ringing steel at the range, hunting small game, or just tuning your 10/22 into a tack driver, this is the kind of barrel that pays dividends in consistency and shot-to-shot repeatability.
The Match Series designation tells you Faxon engineered this for precision: tighter tolerances, careful bore finishing, and that heavy profile mean less vibration and better thermal stability downrange. Swap it onto your existing 10/22 receiver and you've basically got a new rifle without the new-rifle price. The nitride coating plays nice with all ammo types and environments—it's not fussy about cleaning schedules the way bare stainless can be.
If your 10/22 started life as a basic plinking gun and you're ready to unlock its real potential, or if you already run a precision build and want to experiment with barrel length and profile, the Faxon heavy match barrel is a no-nonsense way to get there. It's the kind of upgrade that actually shows up on the target.
| Barrel Length | 18.5 inches |
| Material | 416-R stainless steel |
| Finish | Nitride |
| Profile | Heavy |
| Compatibility | Ruger 10/22 |
| Model Number | 12B216N18Lhq-T |
Yes. The Faxon Match Series barrel is designed as a drop-in replacement for 10/22 receivers.
The heavy profile reduces vibration during firing and improves thermal stability, which helps maintain accuracy across multiple shots and longer strings of fire. It's the choice for precision shooting and range work.
Nitride provides superior corrosion resistance and is much more forgiving if you skip a cleaning session. It's also tougher and requires less maintenance while delivering the same accuracy benefits as bare stainless.
Yes. The 18.5-inch length and accuracy-focused design make it well-suited for small-game hunting, and the nitride finish holds up to field use.
