Overview

Bartlein 5R cut rifling in a 2 to 3 lb carbon fiber .22 cal blank

The Bartlein .22 caliber carbon fiber barrel blank is a 5R cut-rifled stainless steel core wrapped in carbon fiber, sold unchambered for a gunsmith to fit. It comes in the #13 Varmint/Sendero and #14 M24/M40 contours, 1:7 twist, and 20 to 26 inch finish lengths. Other contours are available to order.

5R single-point cut rifling

Five lands with a gentler side angle than conventional rifling, and an odd count so no land sits directly opposite another. Bartlein says the land shape is easier on the bullet jacket, with up to 5 percent less BC loss in its testing.

Stainless core, carbon wrap

A full-length stainless steel liner carries the .224" bore, with 2.75" of bare steel at the breech before the carbon wrap begins. The resin has been tested stable past 500 degrees F.

Two contours, 2.05 to 2.8 lb

#13 Varmint/Sendero steps from a 1.200" breech to .950" and tapers to an .830" muzzle at 26", 2.05 to 2.8 lb by length. #14 M24/M40 tapers straight to a .900" muzzle at 26" and weighs about 2.35 to 3.2 lb.

One twist, four lengths

1:7 twist in 20, 22, 24 and 26 inch finish lengths. Each blank ships 1" over its finish length so your gunsmith can cut and crown the muzzle.

Muzzle sized for a suppressor

Bartlein's guideline for suppressor use is a .700" minimum muzzle diameter. Both contours clear it, .830" on the #13 and .900" on the #14.

Fitment

Will it work with your build?

Works with

  • Bolt-action rifles being rebarreled by a gunsmith for a .22 centerfire cartridge
  • .22 centerfire cartridges such as .223 Rem, 22-250 Rem, and other .224 bore cartridges
  • Suppressors: both muzzles are above Bartlein's .700" minimum

Will not work with

  • Light-for-caliber bullets (35 to 60 gr): Bartlein does not recommend 5R rifling for short-jacket bullets this small
  • Pre-fit installs: this blank has no chamber, thread or crown

This is a blank, not a finished barrel. It must be chambered, threaded, crowned and installed by a qualified gunsmith, and the finish length you choose is the length after the extra 1" is cut from the muzzle. Rifle barrels ship for a flat $14.95 per order, any quantity, and do not qualify for free shipping.

Detail

Fitting it and the fine print

Which contour do I order, #13 or #14?

Both start at a 1.200" breech with 2.75" of exposed steel. The #13 Varmint/Sendero steps down to .950" at 4.350" from the breech and then tapers to an .830" muzzle at 26", so it is the lighter of the two at 2.05 to 2.8 lb. The #14 M24/M40 runs a single straight taper to a .900" muzzle at 26" and weighs about 2.35 to 3.2 lb, roughly 0.2 to 0.4 lb more at the same length. Both muzzles are above the .700" Bartlein likes to see under a suppressor. Other contours are available to order.

Is this a finished barrel?

No. Your gunsmith chambers, threads, crowns and installs it. Every blank is 1" longer than the finish length you order: Bartlein hand laps each cut-rifled barrel, which can bell-mouth the muzzle, so at least 1.0" must come off the muzzle end. Chambering removes the same effect at the breech.

Why 1:7 twist for .22 cal?

The 1:7 twist is Bartlein's standard for .224 bore blanks across the product line. For light-for-caliber varmint bullets (35 to 60 gr), Bartlein recommends conventional rifling over 5R, since the short bearing surface of these bullets does not work as well with the 5R land profile.
