Our Fluted Lightweight .22LR barrel is an aftermarket replacement for the 10/22® barrel. This is a fantastic 1 pound barrel to slip into your 10/22® pistol. This lightweight bull barrel design is unique due to the singular construction of the barrel, breech to muzzle. Then we sleeve the barrel with a black or silver anodized tube to give it a bull barrel look, along with an extremely rigid and durable construction. This innovation in the .22 barrel gives it unparalleled accuracy in this weight class.
The Kidd 22 Fluted Lightweight barrel has a bull diameter for the first two inches and then steps down to .870 until the muzzle. The bull barrel channel of .920 barrel channel works perfect for this barrel.
Our muzzle threading is 1/2"-28 and is available with a protective cap. We believe these are the finest barrels on the market, each one is HAND LAPPED. Our stainless steel barrel is bored and rifled by Lothar Walther in Germany. Tony Kidd then performs all the final machining to make our match barrel a worthy KIDD product. A proprietary chamber reamer is used to ensure the cartridge and bullet feed smoothly. Our barrels are chambered to accept .22 LR ammo and have a 1:16 twist.
The unique convex extractor slot eliminates extraction problems by ensuring the extractor is always in perfect alignment with the case rim. Why doesn't everybody use this extractor slot? Because the tooling is very expensive and requires tolerances be held very close for proper machining. Each barrel receives an 11 degree crown.
