6mm ARC 20inch heavy fluted barrel
This is the second upper I've built for an AR and my first Faxon product, and the fit and finish on this barrel is very nice. I don't have a ton of rounds through this barrel yet but so far I am very happy with the results out to 300yards with factory ammo. Will be a fun target gun and will be great for white tail this year. This won't be my last Faxon purchase.

Absolutely GREAT! Probably the most accurate AR15 that I have ever built. And that's with factory ammo.

Heavy fluted barrels
This is my second heavy fluted barrel, these barrels are amazing.

6mm arc
This barrel is extremely accurate, I have no problem grouping 0.5 moa at 100 yards. And its much more light weight than the ballistic advantage barrel. I highly recommend it

1st blush
The barrel does the work for accuracy. High end parts for support--3.5# aftermarket trigger, matched upper and lower, Aero bolt etc, etc... Shot Hornady 103 gr ELD-X; stacked one upon another fresh from the start; am looking only to get better with further break-in. Get you some venison--out to about 300 yds with full confidence, still has 1100+ ft-lbs energy. Light weight build even with Eliminator lll ballistic calculator scope--would hike anywhere with the combo.
