Faxon RemAge® Style — 20" 6.5 Creedmoor Gunner Profile Bolt Action Barrel (1:8 Twist)

416R stainless • 5R button rifled • Honed & lapped • QPQ nitride • 5/8x24 threads • RemAge® barrel-nut system

The Faxon RemAge® Style 20" 6.5 Creedmoor Gunner Profile Barrel is built for shooters who want precision performance without unnecessary front-end weight. The Gunner contour is designed to balance stiffness and handling, making it an excellent choice for practical precision rifles, hunting builds, and compact long-range setups.

Starting with 416R stainless steel, each barrel is 5R button rifled, then honed & lapped to promote a smooth, consistent bore. The Salt Bath Nitride (QPQ) finish adds corrosion resistance and wear durability, while the recessed target crown helps protect accuracy from knocks and hard use. Barrels are MPI inspected and built to Faxon’s quality standards for dependable performance across modern 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition.

Compatibility note: Designed for the Faxon FX7 and the RemAge® barrel-nut footprint, and compatible with most OEM and similar Remington 700 short action receivers that accept RemAge-style barrel nuts. Always confirm receiver/nut compatibility and verify headspace during installation.
