WTB: .920 barrel for Ruger 10/22

[Tregs]

I'm looking for a 16.5" or 18" .920 bull barrel in stainless steel for my Ruger 10/22. Preferaby fluted.
Green Mountain or ER Shaw preferred, but will consider others.

I assume that you've googled 10/22 barrels and have noted all of the commercial sources? You might also look at the classified ads on Rim Fire Central?

I got my 18" A&B barrel from Midway and it is a dandy.

[Tregs]

yes, I've looked at all the sites and have a good idea of what I want. I just thought I'd give a CHL brother a chance to unload something before I buy a new one.

You're right. there's a ton of info on the Rimfire Central site. It's become my second most visited site, behind this one.

I see gunboker.com references from time to time on RFC. Perhaps, what you are seeking is there?

My A&B barrel is suposedly a GM product and it cost (on sale) <$100 delivered from Midway. I'd be a little leery of the seller and the barrel if it was someone I didn't know for that price. OTOH, a stock OEM 10/22 barrel ain't worth but $40 or so.

Czech out the A&B threads on RFC. Did I mention my torrid love affair, on the side, with my CZ 452's?

I found this link on RFC -
I think I'll go this route unless someone has had bad experiences with shootersdiscount. Anyone used them?

One member had a couple of nice barrels - very tempting, but not exactly what was looking for so I orderd a GM SS 16" fluted from Shooters Direct a few minutes ago. I'll let you know how it goes.

I went to the Garland range yesterday to try out my new barracuda stock, 3-9x40 scope, ext mag release, and trigger work. everything worked well and I was shooting 1.5 - 2" groups at 50yds. The trigger is stll too heavy so I'll keep working on it.

BTW, I think everyone in DFW who owns a handgun was at the range yesterday. I wandered over there for a few minutes to send some 9mm downrange. The place was packed but the rifle and shotgun ranges were empty. I enjoyed seeing all of the dads out there teaching their kids how to shoot.

As I was walking out, I passed a guy who had just stovepiped his 1911. He held the gun in the shooting position for a few seconds with an "I cant beleve this just happened" look on his face.
