Description
The True Precision TP/22 bull barrel is one of the cleaner ways to wake up a Ruger 10/22. It drops onto the 10/22 platform as a straight replacement and brings match-grade features you normally only see on dedicated target rifles. Machined from Shaw Barrels custom 416R stainless blanks, it pairs a .22 LR Bentz match chamber with 1/16 twist rifling, and the whole thing wears a gold Titanium Nitride finish that looks as good as it shoots.
What the Bentz Chamber Does for Your 10/22
The factory 10/22 chamber is cut generously so it will gulp down just about any bulk ammo without hiccups. That reliability comes at the cost of accuracy. The Bentz chamber on the TP/22 runs tighter, which means the bullet sits more consistently before ignition and groups tighten up noticeably. The tradeoff is worth knowing up front: a Bentz chamber runs best with quality standard-velocity or match ammo, so feed it good stuff and it will reward you. Cheap bulk rounds can be a little fussy in a tight chamber, so this barrel really shines when you pair it with the right load.
The Fluted Bull Profile and Integrated Comp
The bull profile does a lot of heavy lifting here. A heavier barrel dampens harmonics and resists heat build-up during long strings, both of which help downrange consistency. The precision fluting shaves weight and adds surface area for cooling without giving up the rigidity that makes a bull barrel worth having. Up front, an integrated forward multi-port compensator keeps muzzle rise flat for quick follow-up shots.
Threaded and Ready to Tune
That compensator is internally threaded, so you are not locked into one setup. You can install adapter plugs for threaded attachments or bypass the ports entirely to dial the barrel in the way you like it. Built from premium U.S.-sourced stainless and made in the USA, the TP/22 is a barrel you can lean on whether you are punching paper at the range or chasing small game.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the True Precision TP/22 barrel fit my Ruger 10/22?
Yes, this barrel is designed as a direct replacement for the Ruger 10/22 platform, and it also fits the True Precision TP/22 receiver. Swapping a 10/22 barrel is a straightforward job most owners can handle at home with basic tools. If you are new to it, the process involves loosening the barrel retainer block and sliding the old barrel out, then reversing the steps.
What kind of ammo works best with the Bentz match chamber?
A Bentz chamber is cut tighter than a factory 10/22 chamber, so it delivers its best accuracy with quality standard-velocity or match-grade ammo. Cheap bulk rounds can occasionally be finicky in a tight chamber since the tolerances leave less wiggle room. Feed it good ammo and you will see the payoff in noticeably tighter groups.
Does the compensator on the TP/22 barrel accept muzzle attachments?
The integrated forward compensator is internally threaded, so you have options. You can install adapter plugs for threaded attachments or bypass the barrel ports entirely to tune the setup to your taste. That flexibility lets you run the barrel comped for flat muzzle behavior or configure it for other muzzle devices.
Why choose a fluted bull barrel over a standard profile?
A bull barrel adds mass that dampens barrel harmonics and resists heat during longer strings, both of which help with consistency downrange. The precision fluting trims some of that extra weight and adds cooling surface without sacrificing the rigidity that makes a heavy barrel accurate. It is a proven recipe for turning a 10/22 into a genuine target performer.
