The Faxon Match Series Target Profile 22" 22 Creedmoor AR10 barrel is engineered for precision shooters seeking exceptional velocity, flat trajectory, and sub-MOA accuracy in the high-performance 22 Creedmoor cartridge on an AR10 platform. The 22" length optimizes velocity for long-range while maintaining manageable handling, and the target profile prioritizes rigidity and harmonic consistency over weight savings.
Manufactured 100% in-house from 416-R stainless steel, Match Series barrels feature 5R button rifling for minimal bullet deformation, consistent velocities, and simplified cleaning. The barrel receives salt bath nitride (QPQ) treatment inside and out for superior wear resistance, corrosion protection, and extended life under high-volume or high-heat use.
The **target profile** delivers a heavy contour for enhanced stiffness and reduced whip, ideal for competition and extreme long-range applications. It includes a Nickel Teflon coated DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension for smooth operation and added corrosion resistance. Finished with a recessed target crown and **MPI inspection**, this barrel is proudly American made by a family-owned manufacturer in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.
