The Faxon RemAge Style 18" Gunner Profile .308 Winchester barrel is built for shooters who want a compact, quick-handling bolt gun without giving up precision. The Gunner contour balances stiffness and weight for field rifles, suppressed setups, and general-purpose .308 builds.
Each barrel starts as premium 416R stainless steel and is made with 5R button rifling, then honed & lapped for a smooth, consistent bore. A salt bath nitride finish enhances corrosion resistance and wear life. Every barrel is magnetic particle inspected (MPI) and built to Faxon’s in-house quality standards.
Compatibility: Designed for Faxon FX7 and most OEM Remington 700 short-action receivers (and similar) that use RemAge-style barrel-nut installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What receivers is this RemAge barrel compatible with?
This barrel is designed for Faxon FX7 and most OEM Remington 700 short-action receivers (and similar) that use a RemAge-style barrel nut installation. Always verify your receiver and nut system before purchase/installation.
Why choose an 18" .308 Win barrel?
An 18" .308 can deliver a very capable balance of velocity, handling, and suppressor-friendly overall length. It’s a popular choice for practical field rifles, truck guns, and compact precision setups.
What is 5R rifling and why does it matter?
5R rifling uses five lands/grooves with a geometry intended to reduce bullet deformation and help limit fouling. The result is often easier cleaning and strong accuracy potential with quality ammunition.
Does the nitride finish affect performance?
Salt bath nitride increases surface hardness and corrosion resistance, and it can help with wear life and cleaning. It’s a strong choice for rifles that see frequent range time, hunting weather, or suppressed use.

Happy with my purchase. Make sure you clean it before you shoot it. Mine likes Sierra 168 grain bullets.
