Description
The True Precision TP/22 barrel is the kind of upgrade that changes how your 10/22 shoots. It starts life as a Shaw Barrels custom rifled blank, gets a .22LR Bentz match chamber cut into it, and finishes with a 1/16 twist that pairs beautifully with standard velocity and match rimfire ammo. If your factory carbine barrel has plateaued and you want tighter groups without building a whole new rifle, this is where the money goes first.
What Sets the TP/22 Bull Barrel Apart
The Bentz chamber is the star here. It splits the difference between a tight match chamber and a loose sporting chamber, so you get better case support and more consistent ignition while still feeding reliably. Add the 416R stainless construction, which resists corrosion and holds its edge over a long service life, and you have a barrel built to shoot a lot without complaint. The precision fluting trims weight off the .920 bull profile and helps shed heat during longer range sessions, so the barrel stays honest even when you're feeding it magazine after magazine.
Muzzle Control Built Right In
Up front is an integrated forward multi-port compensator that helps flatten out muzzle rise so you stay on target between shots. It's internally threaded, which means you can run adapter plugs for threaded attachments or bypass the ports entirely depending on how you want the rifle set up. It's a clean, purpose-built setup that keeps the front end tidy instead of hanging extra hardware off the end.
Fitting It to Your Ruger 10/22
This is a .920 bull profile, so it drops into any 10/22 receiver using the factory V-block, but it won't sit in a standard tapered barrel channel. You'll want a stock cut for a bull contour, or you can open up a channel to free-float it. Torque the V-block screws to spec, and you're in business. Whether you're punching paper at the range or thinning out small game, the TP/22 delivers the consistency and durability that make a 10/22 worth building around.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the TP/22 bull barrel drop into my Ruger 10/22?
Yes, it uses the standard 10/22 barrel shank and the factory V-block, so it installs the same way any aftermarket 10/22 barrel does. Just clean the receiver, seat the barrel, and torque the V-block screws to spec. Occasionally a receiver hole runs a touch loose or tight, which is normal across the platform.
Do I need a different stock for this barrel?
This is a .920 bull profile, so it will not sit in a standard tapered barrel channel. You'll want a stock cut for a bull contour, or you can open up your existing channel to free-float it. Plenty of aftermarket bull-barrel stocks are available if you'd rather not modify what you have.
How does the compensator on the TP/22 barrel work?
The barrel has an integrated forward multi-port compensator that vents gas to help hold the muzzle flat between shots. It's internally threaded, so you can install adapter plugs to run threaded attachments or bypass the ports entirely. That gives you room to tune the setup to how you shoot.
What ammo shoots best out of the Bentz chamber?
The Bentz match chamber and 1:16 twist are happiest with quality standard velocity and match-grade .22 LR loads. Rounds like CCI Standard Velocity or dedicated match ammo tend to produce the tightest groups. It's worth trying a few brands, since every rimfire barrel has its favorites.
