The Gunner profile is a blend of two of the best performing profiles of all time, Gov't and Pencil. Faxon's Gunner profile combines the durability of the Gov't profile with the weight savings and maneuverability of the Pencil profile. The Gunner profile brings the balance of the rifle back towards the shooter's body, limiting fatigue, and allowing for shooting, training, or hunting all day long.

Faxon's MATCH SERIES of barrels takes our renowned performance and value up a notch.

Manufactured in-house from gun-barrel-quality bar-stock, the Match Series starts with 416-R in 5R rifling. 5R is a hybrid rifling, with lands opposite grooves and reduced sharp angles that reduces jacket deformation increasing velocity and easy cleaning. After rigorous testing, the barrels are Nitride treated inside and out, locking in the bore, improving barrel life, and keeping the elements at bay. 

The extension is coated in Nickel Teflon which maintains incredible dry lubricity, corrosion resistance, and with the coating, tightens up fit between the extension and receiver - again improving upon accuracy. Combined, the Match Series of barrels are ready for when duty calls or the buzzer beeps with unrivaled performance value.

    12” 6.5 Grendel

    Posted by MG on Dec 7th 2021

    This Match Series 12” Gunner, 6.5 Grendel barrel appears to be excellent. Due to time and location I was only able to do a quick sight-in at 50m, and then a couple accuracy groups at the same distance. Three, three round groups had all rounds touching using a 6x scope and Hornady 123gr sst. The initial results gave me good confidence that it would be a great barrel for my whitetail hunts. Soon after I was able to use it to successfully take multiple whitetail at distances ranging from 75-200m. This is an excellent barrel, especially considering the price, and I love the light weight! Thank you Faxon for making this.
