FAXON AXIS SERIES TARGET PROFILE 20" RIFLE-LENGTH .308 WIN AR10 BARREL
Faxon AXIS Series AR10 Barrel — Target Profile 20" .308 Win (1:10 Twist, Rifle Gas)
416-R stainless steel • Honed & lapped • 5R button rifled • Uncoated media-blast (bead blasted) exterior • Target profile • Nickel Teflon coated extension • MPI inspected • Recessed 11° target crown • Rifle-length gas • .750" gas block journal • 5/8x24 TPI
The Faxon AXIS Series Target Profile 20" .308 Win AR10 barrel is engineered for shooters who want match-grade performance with the cleanest possible bore finish. Built on the same premium architecture as Faxon’s precision-focused stainless barrels, AXIS goes a step further with a honed and lapped bore for exceptional internal consistency and repeatable accuracy.
AXIS Series barrels start with 416-R stainless steel and 5R button rifling. The 5R geometry is designed to reduce jacket deformation and support consistent performance while remaining easy to maintain. Unlike nitrided barrels, AXIS features an uncoated, media-blasted (bead blasted) stainless exterior that delivers the series’ signature matte finish.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the AXIS Series different from Match Series?
AXIS Series barrels are honed and lapped for exceptional bore consistency and feature an uncoated, media-blasted stainless exterior. Match Series barrels are QPQ nitrided inside and out and are not honed and lapped.
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.
Why choose a 20" .308 Win AR10 barrel with rifle-length gas?
A 20" .308 barrel is a popular balance of velocity and handling, and rifle-length gas helps deliver a smoother recoil impulse and tuning flexibility for precision-focused builds.
Does the bead blasted exterior mean the barrel is uncoated?
Yes. AXIS Series barrels feature an uncoated stainless exterior with a media-blasted (bead blasted) finish for a uniform matte appearance.
