Faxon Duty Series 16", Big Gunner, .308 WIN, Mid-Length, 4150 QPQ Nitride AR-10 Barrel
FaxonFaxon's .308 continue our fantastic barrel-making with a bit more punch. We've updated our previous Medium-Taper profile taking into account customer feedback, optimizing the barrel to meet the Gunner brand's high standards.
The .308 Big Gunner profile barrels are the big-brother to our famous 5.56 Gunner barrels. The Big Gunners feature a medium-taper behind the gas block. The gas block journal is set to .750" for compatibility with most common gas blocks and 1.9" in length for long blocks or aftermarket piston kits. From the gas block journal forward we use a thinner taper, designed to reduce weight yet maintain rigidity for high rates of fire and as a suppressor host.
The Gunner barrels are ideal for any competition or duty use. When the seconds count, count on the Gunner profile.

Performance Exceeded Expectations
This 16" barrel blows my OEM 20" out of the water. I almost gave up on the AR10 this went on but I have renewed faith in it now. Thank you Faxon!

The 16” 308 pencil barrel
Install on barrel was as easy as it gets, no malfunctions, timed suppressor within 15 rounds, accuracy was very good. I’m very pleased with the performance and overall quality of the product.

Faxon 16" 308 Big Gunner Barrel
This Big Gunner is my 3rd Faxon barrel. I've tried other barrels with some costing considerably more and Faxon has them all beat. Every Faxon barrel has been dead on right out of the box. No reason to use any other. Happy customer !

Pleasantly surprised
SA adjustable gas block and remainder mostly aero parts. Very balanced setup due to the light profile. Accuracy: 1 -1.2 175gr SMK Various loads including GMM, 0.5 168gr SMK GMM, did not like m80 loads. The SA gas block was not able to adjust via bleed off...had to dial in using restrictive setting. Overall very pleased with the performance and weight of this barrel.
