Faxon Match Series AR10 Barrel — Flame Fluted® 20" .308 Win (1:10 Twist, Rifle Gas)

416-R stainless steel • 5R button rifled • Salt bath nitride (QPQ) inside & out • Flame Fluted® profile • Nickel Teflon coated extension • MPI inspected • Recessed 11° target crown • Rifle-length gas • .750" gas block journal • 1.1" journal length • 5/8x24 TPI

The Faxon Match Series Flame Fluted® 20" .308 Win AR10 barrel is built for shooters who want a precision-forward .308 AR10 barrel that balances long-range capability with refined handling. With rifle-length gas and a 20-inch length, it’s a strong choice for competition, target shooting, and field-capable precision builds.

Match Series barrels begin with 416-R stainless steel and 5R button rifling. 5R geometry is designed to reduce jacket deformation and support consistent performance while remaining easy to maintain. After rigorous testing, the barrel receives salt bath nitride (QPQ) treatment inside and out to improve wear resistance, corrosion protection, and service life.

The Flame Fluted® profile reduces weight while preserving practical rigidity and adding surface area to help manage heat during extended firing. A Nickel Teflon coated DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension adds corrosion resistance and dry lubricity at the receiver interface. Finished with a recessed 11-degree target crown and MPI inspection, this barrel is proudly American-made by a family-owned manufacturer in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.

Key Benefits

  • Match Series durability: QPQ nitride inside & out helps resist corrosion and wear.
  • Flame Fluted® profile: Reduces weight while maintaining practical stiffness and increasing cooling surface area.
  • 5R rifling: Designed to reduce jacket deformation and support easier cleaning.
  • 416-R stainless steel: Excellent for precision barrels and consistent thermal behavior.
  • Nickel Teflon extension: Dry lubricity and corrosion resistance at the receiver interface.
  • Precision crown: Recessed 11° target crown helps protect accuracy at the muzzle.
  • Rifle-length gas: Smooth recoil impulse and tuning flexibility for .308 AR10 builds.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Precision AR10 builds: Target-ready performance with a balanced 20" .308 configuration.
  • Competition & target: Durable nitride finish for high-round-count training and match use.
  • Field-capable long-range: Fluting reduces carry weight while maintaining practical rigidity.
  • Suppressor-ready setups: 5/8x24 supports common .30-cal muzzle devices (verify alignment/mount specs).

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Flame Fluted® mean?
Flame Fluted® is a distinctive fluting pattern designed to reduce barrel weight while maintaining practical rigidity and increasing surface area to help manage heat during extended firing.
Is this compatible with DPMS / LR-308 pattern AR10 receivers?
Yes. This barrel uses a DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension. Always confirm compatibility with your bolt, receiver set, and components.
Is the Match Series honed and lapped?
No. Match Series barrels feature 416-R stainless, 5R button rifling, and QPQ nitride inside and out, but are not honed and lapped (that is specific to AXIS Series barrels).
What does QPQ nitride add to performance?
QPQ salt bath nitride improves corrosion resistance and wear and can reduce fouling for easier maintenance while supporting long service life.
