Faxon Firearms Gunner 338 ARC 12.5" Barrel Black Nitride 416R Stainless Steel

The Faxon Match Series Gunner 5R Rifled Barrel is manufactured 100% in-house from cradle-to-grave. The barrel is machined from gun-barrel quality bar-stock steel with black nitride coating for added durability and longevity. The extension is coated in Nickel Teflon which maintains incredibly dry lubricity, corrosion resistance, and works to tighten the fit between the extension and receiver - which improves the accuracy as well. The 5R is a hybrid rifling, with opposite groove lands (cut ridges), as well as reduced sharp angles that reduces jacket deformation increasing the velocity. This makes for an extremely easy barrel for cleaning. The Match Series hybrid chamber with 5R rifling also comes fully MPI inspected and offers better accuracy through less bullet jump. The Gunner profile is a blend of two of the best performing profiles of all time, Gov't and Pencil. Faxon's Gunner profile combines the durability of the Gov't profile with the weight savings and maneuverability of the Pencil profile. The Gunner profile brings the balance of the rifle back towards the shooter's body, limiting fatigue, and allowing for shooting, training, or hunting all day long.
