Stainless Accuracy, Nitride Durability, and Faxon Quality

The Faxon Firearms AR-10 Match Series – 18 inch Heavy Fluted Barrel – .308 WIN is the ideal component for AR-10 enthusiasts to achieve long-range accuracy and long-term durability that is designed specifically for rifles in .308 Win calibers. It offers much better protection in the bore than any typical barrels and provides a longer barrel life than any typical barrel that uses the 416-R steel.

The Faxon Match Series barrels remain unique with their QPQ finish, providing added resistance to corrosion and less friction down the bore, thus prolonging the barrel life.

Unique Heavy Fluted Design To Dissipate Heat

The Faxon Firearms AR-10 Match Series – 18 inch Heavy Fluted Barrel – .308 WIN features a unique heavy fluted design that not only looks great but also dissipates barrel heat to resist distortion to allow the shooter to take full advantage of the potential of the .308 Win chamber.

It also allows better projectile velocity and makes for an easier-to-clean bore than a traditional rifling pattern. These barrels are manufactured 100% in-house and gone through rigorous testing to ensure durability and optimum accuracy.

Faxon’s MATCH SERIES of barrels takes our renowned performance and value up a notch.

Manufactured 100% in-house from gun-barrel-quality bar-stock, the Match Series starts with 416-R in 5R rifling. 5R is a hybrid rifling, with lands opposite grooves and reduced sharp angles that reduce jacket deformation increasing velocity and easy cleaning. These Match Series barrels are chambered in .308 Win and take full advantage of the 5R rifling. Better accuracy through less bullet jump, but fully and individually MPI tested for your safety. After rigorous testing, the barrels are Nitride treated inside and out, locking in the bore, improving barrel life, and keeping the elements at bay.

The extension is coated in Nickel Teflon which maintains incredible dry lubricity, corrosion resistance, and with the coating, tightens up fit between the extension and receiver – again improving upon accuracy. Combined, the Match Series of barrels are ready for when duty calls or the buzzer beeps with unrivaled performance value.

I recently installed this on a PA10, and have been impressed with the accuracy, especially for how light it feels. When using very good ammo (175gr Federal Gold Medal Match), this barrel is sub MOA at 100yards under ideal conditions. I’ve had no problems with the barrel, and am overall very happy with the overall performance. If you’re looking to improve you rifle’s accuracy, then this is a solid option at a good price point.

Thank you for the positive review of the Faxon Firearms AR-10 Match Series – 18 inch Heavy Fluted Barrel – .308 WIN – 5R – 416R – Nitride – Nickel Teflon Extension! We're glad to hear that you're enjoying the rifle and that the accuracy is exceptional.

Hit or miss with QC

First one I got all the flutes were razor sharped and chipped up, I contacted Faxon, they sent me another.... same thing, but worse coating, they went and hand selected me one and the third one was decent. Very good and responsive customer service but they have no idea how to manufacture and finish a barrel. They must have lost all their help. The 3rd one is decent for this discounted sale price, I would never pay full price as its just not a nice product. They missed a process before coating, really rough, sharp,..etc. Seems to shoot good and good deal for 245.
