Faxon Rimfire Plinker 10/22 Pencil Profile 22 LR 16″

The Faxon Rimfire Plinker Series Pencil Profile 16″ Barrel for 10/22® is the lightest-handling option in the Faxon rimfire lineup, built for shooters who value speed, balance, and all-day comfort. Using a .22 LR Sporting chamber, this barrel emphasizes broad ammunition compatibility and reliable cycling for high-volume plinking, training, and suppressed use.

Manufactured in-house at Faxon Firearms in Cincinnati, Ohio from 416-R stainless steel, the pencil contour dramatically reduces forward weight while retaining durability and consistency. A salt bath nitride finish improves corrosion resistance and cleaning ease.
