About
What it is, and why it matters
The Ruger 10/22 SBR is a factory short-barreled rifle version of the 10/22 introduced in 2026 as part of Ruger's new NFA SBR lineup. Model 33000 pairs an 8-inch 1:16" RH alloy-steel barrel with a 1/2"-28 threaded muzzle and thread protector, a reversible folding stock with adjustable length of pull, an AR-style pistol grip, and a factory-installed Picatinny rail. It uses the improved BX-Trigger and ships with a flush-fit BX-15 magazine. A 10-inch barrelled Takedown variant (Model 33001) is also offered.
Decades after countless owners cut down their own 10/22s, Ruger finally offered a factory short-barreled rifle version in 2026, registering the NFA paperwork hassle into a turnkey 8-inch package.
Factory SBR requires NFA registration in the US. The 10/22 platform's signature 10-round rotary magazine remains compatible; the SBR ships with a 15-round BX-15 rotary-style magazine. Model 33000 (8" fixed) and 33001 (10" Takedown).

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
