RUGER® 10/22® TAKEDOWN SB-X TAPERED BARRELS Reviews & Ratings

The Tactical Solutions SB-X 10/22® Takedown Barrel is compact and lightweight, a replacement for the heavy factory barrel that lets you lighten up your Ruger® 10/22® Takedown rifle without sacrificing accuracy.

The bore length the Tactical Solutions SB-X 10/22® Takedown Barrel is 12.375", with a permanently attached shroud that brings the overall length to a legal, no-NFA-paperwork-required 16.625". You get all the benefits of an SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) with NO ATF paperwork.

The muzzle is threaded ½"-28, and the shroud is hollow with inside diameter (I.D.) of 1.10” so any suppressor that has a lesser O.D. will fit the Tactical Solutions SB-X 10/22® Takedown Barrel and let you maintain the compact overall length.

Barrel includes 10/22 Takedown locking mechanism
6061 T6 aluminum outer housing with 1-16" rifled steel bore liner
Barrel Shank: Stainless Steel
Includes the permanently attached shroud and a removable inert display suppressor

Brownells/Tacsol 10/22 Build

The Tactical Solutions SB-X takedown barrel looks sweet paired with a Magpul X-22 backpacker stock and worked great with the brn 22 flat top takedown receiver, matching Brownells bolt, and a Ruger bx trigger.

What a great little compact suppressed barrel. Fits like a glove & my suppressor fits in perfectly without adding the extra length..

The Perfect Solution!

This is great barrel option. The shroud allows me to add my suppressor to it and keep the barrel length short. I've added a Kidd trigger and Hogue Stock. This barrel makes it an even better setup.

Beautiful Barrel/Great Performance

This Barrel performs well. Asthetically appealing. I wish this company could make longer barrels like this as well. Fits in original takedown stock beautifully!! Will not fit in your Magpul Hunter Stock!!

Easy Install & Better Accuracy

I installed this barrel on my rifle in less than 5 minutes. When I went to the range to test it out I was amazed how accurate it was. In fact the accuracy was better than the factory 16" barrel that came with the rifle. If you have a .22 suppressor and you want to keep your rifle at its factory length this is the barrel for you.
