Gary, yes Sir, this rifle has an 18" Free-floated hammer-forged barrel with 1/2"-28 threads and a target-crown. Ruger's American Rimfire rifle features a patent-pending Power Bedding integral bedding block system which positively locates the receiver and free-floats the barrel for outstanding accuracy. The cold hammer-forged barrel results in ultra-precise rifling which provides exceptional accuracy, longevity and easy cleaning. Cheers!
