My form 4 will hopefully be approved by May (warlock) - and I'm on the search for a decent threaded 10/22 barrel. I'm leaning towards the Tactical Innovations 1:9...in order to run the SSS heavier grain bullet.
I'm not sure if I should stick to 1:16 though - I haven't had the opportunity to shoot both and decide (I'm interested in which ever would be the quietest)

The TacInc's are currently out of stock

Any suggestions? (in the $150 range)
 
Re: Any 10/22threaded barrel suggestions? (affordable)

Well - I guess I didn't mention my other option. I already have a decent 1:16 heavy barrel sitting in the 10/22 now. I can easily yank it and send it out - but for what it costs to send out for threading ($125 or so). I figured it would be cheaper to just pay the $150 on a new one that is already threaded - and sell my current one for $100 ish setting me back only $50 or so. I really don't want to put $300 into my current barrel - or any more money in the 10/22 than I have to - it will just be a camping toy for the friends to get a kick out of.
I really don't like the idea of baffle strikes though! That's nuts. I've heard the TacSol's are hit/miss.
I've heard good things about Green Mountain - but I can't find where they sell threaded.
Thanks for the input -

Even McGowen barrels can make one any length you want and can add flutes and thread it for a reasonable cost.

Hope this helps

And I've had the opposite experience. My TacSol barrel loves my SWR Spectre. So much so that in my first range trip this past weekend I dumped 3 shots through the same hole. Wouldn't trade it for anything at this point.

Also, my can shoulders snugly against the barrel and the threading is nice and tight. No issues at all.

We have been using the M.O.A. Stainless Receiver. They list for $179.95 dealer $144.95 then you have a SS action which is stiffer than aluminum. Also used Shilen and most will shoot under 1" Make a great setup!

I have the E.R. Shaw 16.5 inch threaded bull barrel on my 10 22 and have had no issue with it. I use the gun primarily for slaying prairie dogs and quietly eliminating armadillos in my neighborhood.

I agree with DFOOSKING on sticking with the 1:16 twist.
