Tactical Solutions X-Ring 16.5" Threaded Bull Barrel

Tactical Solutions has been the volume aftermarket 10/22 barrel maker for two decades. The X-Ring uses the same construction logic as Volquartsen's carbon barrels but substitutes an aluminum tension sleeve for the carbon fiber, which drops the price into the mid range while keeping the lightweight bull profile and the stainless match liner that drives accuracy. The X-Ring Performance feed currently sits around the $299 mark, and the threaded muzzle is the 1/2x28 standard so any rimfire can or muzzle device fits without an adapter.

The barrel ships with a custom-fit recoil pad shim setup and is supplied as a 0.920 bull-diameter prefit, which means it requires a bull-channel stock or chassis. Buyers running a Magpul Hunter X-22 (with the bull-channel inlet flipped) or any aluminum 10/22 chassis are good to go. Standard factory wood sporter stocks will not accept this barrel without bedding work. TacSol offers the X-Ring in multiple Cerakote colors including silver, sand/quicksand, gloss black, and matte black.
