The Faxon AXIS Series 24" 6.5 Creedmoor AR10 Target barrel is engineered for shooters seeking maximum precision, consistency, and repeatability in long-range AR10 platforms. This barrel is purpose-built for accuracy-driven applications such as precision rifle competition, extended-distance target shooting, and refined hunting setups.
AXIS Series barrels are manufactured from 416-R stainless steel and feature 5R button rifling with a fully honed and lapped bore. This process produces a smooth internal finish that supports consistent velocities, reduced fouling, and easier cleaning over the life of the barrel. Unlike nitrided barrels, the AXIS Series uses a clean media-blast exterior finish with no coating, maintaining dimensional stability and predictable thermal behavior.
A Nickel Teflon-coated DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension improves corrosion resistance and dry lubricity at the interface, while the recessed 11-degree target crown protects the muzzle and preserves accuracy. Each barrel is Magnetic Particle Inspected (MPI) and proudly made in the USA by a family-owned manufacturer in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.
Ideal Use Cases
- Long-range AR10 precision builds: 24" length maximizes velocity and consistency.
- Competition and target shooting: Honed & lapped 5R bore for repeatable accuracy.
- Rifle-length gas systems: Smooth recoil impulse and optimized dwell time.
- Builders who prefer non-coated stainless barrels: Media-blast finish with no nitride layer.

WOW! Top quality
I have a box of ammo through this barrel and it is preforming better than expected! After breaking it in it is printing 1/2 moa groups. I am excited to take it out to 1,000 yards and will be attempting 1 mile this spring.
