. 22LR 16" lightweight barrel for 10/22
This has been a great shooting barrel and the threaded muzzle with the included thread protector is a nice touch. As usual Faxon barrels shoot as good as they look. This barrel make the 3 caliber barrel I have bought from Faxin and they have all been fantastic. The magnetic particle inspection is just icing on the cake.

10/22 Barrel
This was a great addition to my 10/22. Great quality. I would definitely recommend. It works fine with the stock furniture.

Nice barrel to upgrade the cheap 10/22 Ruger
Since the barrel is thinner than the stock, it actually achieve the true free floating, and 1 MOA accuracy with CCI Standard Velocity. Though cold barrel flier is still an issue, don't know if the barrel need more than 200 rounds to break in.
