I have hankerin to put a quality 10/22 together. I want a SS/Fluted hand lapped bbl the same contour as factory sporter bbl. I do not want .920” bbl. Any idea where I can find this kind bbl?? Thanks
 
I've out of the game a while and just getting the bug again, can't speak to modern iterations, there's some pretty amazing offerings. But I do know a simple factory barrel has great potential. My most accurate 10/22 was one sold by Wal-Mart back mid 90s. Stainless with laminated mannlicher stock. So in wanting to preserve the use of that stock I sent the trigger group and barrel to > http://www.ct-precision.com/
They set the chamber back and re-crowned it, I then sent it to be cryogenicly tempered. It regularly out shot "custom" bull barrels, and even the Ruger hammer forged on my target tactical. Damn I sure do miss both of those!
