A syringe barrel includes a hollow barrel portion that has a proximal-end opening at a proximal end of the barrel portion and is configured such that a gasket is insertable from the proximal-end opening into the barrel portion. An inner peripheral portion of the barrel portion includes a tapered portion in a main area of the inner peripheral portion in an axial direction, the tapered portion having an inner diameter that gradually increases toward a distal end of the tapered portion from a proximal end of the tapered portion.
