Faxon Match Series AR10 Barrel — Target Profile 22" 22 Creedmoor (Rifle Gas)

416-R stainless steel • 5R button rifled • Salt bath nitride (QPQ) inside & out • Target profile • Nickel Teflon coated extension • MPI inspected • Recessed target crown • Rifle-length gas • .750" gas block journal • 5/8x24 muzzle threads

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.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Precision AR10 builds in 22 Creedmoor: 22" length maximizes velocity for flat-shooting long-range performance.
  • Competition shooting (PRS/NRL, etc.): Target profile ensures stability and repeatability during strings.
  • Long-range varmint/target work: High velocity and accuracy with .22-caliber projectiles.
  • High round count / demanding use: QPQ nitride enhances durability and corrosion resistance.

Key Benefits

  • Match Series performance: Precision-focused with durable finishes for consistent results.
  • 5R rifling: Reduced deformation, easier cleaning, and velocity consistency.
  • Target profile: Maximum stiffness and accuracy without fluting trade-offs.
  • Salt bath nitride: Extended barrel life and superior corrosion protection.
  • Nickel Teflon extension: Smooth fit, reliable feeding, and enhanced durability.
  • Made in the USA: Manufactured in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes 22 Creedmoor different from 6.5 Creedmoor?
22 Creedmoor uses a necked-down .224" bullet on a 6.5 CM case for higher velocity, flatter trajectory, and reduced recoil—ideal for long-range precision with less wind drift on lighter projectiles.
How does the Target profile differ from Heavy Fluted?
Target profile is a continuous heavy contour for superior stiffness and vibration damping (better for benchrest/precision), while heavy fluted reduces weight with flutes for heat/handling benefits.
Is this barrel compatible with DPMS / LR-308 AR10 receivers?
Yes. It uses a DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension. Verify compatibility with your specific receiver, bolt (likely .308/6.5 CM bolt face works for 22 CM), and components.
Is this barrel suppressor-ready?
Yes, with 5/8x24 muzzle threads supporting most .30-cal (or dedicated 22 cal) muzzle devices and suppressors. Confirm bore alignment and suppressor ratings for high-velocity 22 Creedmoor loads.
