I believe there is a company in Washington state that will export Kidd products to Canada. If you contact Kidd in Texas they will provide the name of this company.

Dlask used to sell Kidd products but they have apparently terminated their agreement with Kidd.

Thanks! I will check.

Everything is a pain to get here and then it gets confiscated once you have it :mad:


What is the point of carbon wrapped .22 barrels? Dont they all have a steel core with carbon around? Wouldnt it be just as good without the carbon?

I want to try out a different barrel on my 10/22. I haven't really looked into it yet as .22s have been on the back-burner for me for years.

Currently have a 12.5" ( I think) Dlask barrel.

Any suggestions?

Edit:

This arrived Monday; .920' 16.1” carbon fibre-wrapped barrel for my 10/22. Canadian made by Grey Birch Solutions.

It’s very nicely made and way lighter than the steel 12.5” .920 I had on it before.

I don’t have any fancy .22 ammo so I shot it Monday with CCI MiniMags, Winchester bulk box, Remington Golden Bullets, and some sort of Federal in a plain white box. All was high velocity between 36 and 40 gr. and copper plated. Today I scrounged up a box of Eley standard velocity to try out.

I got the best results Monday with the CCI and Federal. The Winchester was okay and results might have been due to me, while the Remington wasn’t great. The Eley shot really nice.

Rifle has a stock trigger and I had an old Bushnell 2-7x on it.

The CCI and Federal were around 1/2” at 25m and the Eley was better. I’m quite happy with the results, especially since I'm really not much good at "precision" shooting. I can see this leading down a whole new shooting rabbit hole.

Any suggestions on where to get a better trigger?

Nice packaging, bonus points for the stickers:

Hello there,

How much did you paid for the barrel? Where did you ordered it from? Did you installed it your self?

Thx
Bob
