Aluminium barrels for the 10/22
Posted: Sat Oct 22, 2022 9:03 am
I am in the process of 'doing up' a Ruger 10/22, it has the Rimfire magic altered BX trigger unit and a Magpul stock, but I want to put a lightweight barrel on it
as I find the normal heavy steel 'bull' barrels a bit too much to hold in a long competition (I'm getting on a bit in age!). I already have another 10/22 with a 12 1/2" Volquartsen carbon barrel, but these are rather expensive, so I was looking at an aluminium barrel made by a US company called Majestic and imported by the Rimfire Magic people in South Yorkshire and are made in 13 1/2" and 16" lengths and cost about £100.00 less.
Has anyone had any experience with these barrels?
