Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires New Bartlein barrel

1965 Ruger receiver, Kidd bolt and trigger

Nice.... I'll bet it's a tack driver!

Very cool!

Conclusion.... Is the barrel worth $375???? I shot Wolf, SK, Eley, Norma, Federal, CCI and it shot all of them very well from a bipod and a rear bag.Scope was on 14x and no wind flags were used. The rifle ran perfectly without one malfunction. So, anytime you can get a barrel that shoots different brands of ammo very well with zero malfunctions, it is worth what I paid for it to me. Further testing will be done with Eley and Lapua ammo with flags. Bartlein make an outstanding 10/22 barrel!

Eley Pistol 50 shots



Norma tac 22 20 shots

You are right, if that barrel shoots several different brands of ammo that well I'd say it's money well spent. It's funny, my kidd 10/22 shoots even cheap ammo pretty darn good where a couple 54's don't like the cheaper stuff at all.

Yes, I am very happy with it. Especially no fail to fires or ejects. Flawless operation!

That's the definition of "Tack Driver"

Enjoy!

Isn't it a little hammer with a split on one side of it?

I have one of those, belonged to my carpenter granddad.

That split head is a magnet.

lapua, that's some fine shooting with that little hammer.



My experience, also.

Thank you gentleman
