Ruger 10/22 barrel.

[Alpha1]

I see there are a lot of after market heavy barrels out there for the 10/22 can you buy a chambered barrel and fit it your self or is it a gunsmith jobby.

[MistAgain]

Send your Ruger to SYSS , he fits a barrel , gets it proofed , send it back to you . Simples .

Easy to fit yourself. Go to rfd and swap it on the premises.
Take action out of stock first.

There is a huge range of pre-fit barrels for the 10/22 and they are very easy to swap, just get yourself a variation for a spare barrel and a set of head space gauges for peace of mind.

[MistAgain]

Why waste time and money getting a variation ?
You dont need a spare barrel for a 10/22 .

Just get an RDF who is skilled with a 10/22 to source a barrel of your choice , get him to fit it and proof it .

Probably cheaper that way as well .

The best man in the country for Ruger 10/22 work is Roger Francis at South Yorks Shooting Supplies .

Even if your receiver is slightly out of factory spec he can probably help you .

If you want quality you have to travel these days .

10/22 is easy. You only need an allen key.
And a screwdriver to get the stock off.
