I really want a 16" Brl for my 10/22. I would prefer a thin brl that will work with my existing OEM stock.

So far all the 16" Brls i have found and $$$ bull Brls.

FAC sell factory profile barrels.  there carbon fiber and a bit pricey though.  id say look on ebay or the EE.  i just sold my factory 16" barrel not too long ago.  should be lots out there though.    
i guess you have the 18" now?  why you want to just loose the 2"?

Check out White Mountain Barrel Supply. They have some 16"'s, and some 16" Sporter barrels due in '04.

Put it in the lathe, cut it down face it off and re-crown, you are good to go.

I've heard that no one cuts down factory 10/22 barrels any more because it hurts accuracy alot.  Also, most .22LR will reach highest velocity in 16".

Green Mountain hands down.  Best 10/22 barrels for the money.  www.gmriflebarrel.com

At the bottom of this page: www.gmriflebarrel.com/catalog_3.cfm?majorid=2&gid=77&pid=104&cfid=721891&cftoken=81238604&r=773197775921  there are "Sporter" barrels listed that will fit the factory stock for $75.

that green mountain barrel is amazing.  I sent it up to Randy at CPC with the action and the stock for some work and this thing is simply amazing.  You can use the standard stock with the barrel but you would have to take a wooden dowel and some sandpaper to make the channel larger for the Bull Barrel.  The green mtn barrels are cheap enough to match them up with a boyds stock and still be under the $215 mark if not under $200 for both. wait til boyds has a sale
