The Faxon Match series barrels elevate performance and value to new heights, crafted meticulously in-house from premium gun-barrel-quality bar-stock. At the core of the Match series is the use of 416-R stainless steel with innovative 5R rifling. This hybrid rifling design features lands opposite grooves and reduced sharp angles, minimizing jacket deformation, enhancing velocity and simplifying cleaning. Each barrel undergoes rigorous testing and is nitride treated both internally and externally, ensuring a locked-in bore, extended barrel life and robust protection against environmental elements. The barrel extension is enhanced with a Nickel Teflon coating, offering exceptional dry lubricity and corrosion resistance. This coating also ensures a tighter fit between the extension and receiver, further refining accuracy. The Faxon Match series barrels are engineered to deliver unmatched performance and reliability, whether in critical duty situations or competitive shooting scenarios. With their superior construction and advanced features, these barrels are the epitome of precision and durability, ready to meet the demands of any challenge.Recessed target crownTwist rate - 1:8Gas block diameter - 3/4 inches1.1 gas block journal lengthCompatible with DPMS LR-308 - barrel extension with nickel teflon coatingRifle length, 5R button-rifled, heavy fluted barrelMagnetic particle inspection (MPI) for optimal performance to ensure optimal performance, it is essential to conduct magnetic particle inspection (MPI) with precision and adherence to established protocolsThis non-destructive testing method is employed to detect surface and near surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materialsBy applying a magnetic field to the test object and introducing magnetic particles, any disruptions in the magnetic field caused by defects become visible, allowing for accurate identification and assessmentProper execution of MPI requires a thorough understanding of the equipment, materials and techniques involved, as well as strict compliance with safety standards and guidelines
