Faxon
Faxon FX7 Prefit M24 Profile — 24" 22 Creedmoor Bolt Action Barrel (7F1B22C8N24N24Q)
416-R stainless • 5R button rifled • Honed & lapped • Salt bath nitride • 1/2x28 threads • Recessed target crown • MPI inspected
The Faxon FX7 Prefit 24" 22 Creedmoor M24 Barrel is engineered for shooters building high-velocity, flat-shooting bolt-action rifles optimized for long-range performance. Designed as a prefit barrel specifically for the Faxon FX7 action, the M24 contour provides outstanding rigidity and thermal stability for consistent sub-MOA results across extended shooting sessions.
Starting with 416-R stainless steel, the bore is 5R button rifled, then honed & lapped for a smooth, precise internal finish. A salt bath nitride (QPQ) treatment enhances corrosion resistance and reduces fouling, while the recessed target crown protects accuracy at the muzzle. Each barrel is Magnetic Particle Inspected (MPI) and built to Faxon’s exacting standards in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.
