Faxon MATCH-X Series AR10 Barrel — Target Profile 20" .308 Win (1:10 Twist, Rifle Gas)

416-R stainless steel • Honed & lapped • 5R button rifled • Uncoated media-blast (bead blasted) exterior • Target profile • Nickel Teflon coated extension • MPI inspected • Recessed 11° target crown • Rifle-length gas • .750" gas block journal • 5/8x24 TPI

The Faxon MATCH-X Series Target Profile 20" .308 Win AR10 barrel is engineered for shooters who want match-grade performance with the cleanest possible bore finish. Built on the same premium architecture as Faxon’s precision-focused stainless barrels, MATCH-X goes a step further with a honed and lapped bore for exceptional internal consistency and repeatable accuracy.

MATCH-X Series barrels start with 416-R stainless steel and 5R button rifling. The 5R geometry is designed to reduce jacket deformation and support consistent performance while remaining easy to maintain. Unlike nitrided barrels, MATCH-X features an uncoated, media-blasted (bead blasted) stainless exterior that delivers the series’ signature matte finish.

A Nickel Teflon coated DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension adds corrosion resistance and dry lubricity at the receiver interface. Finished with a recessed 11-degree target crown and MPI inspection, this barrel is proudly American-made by a family-owned manufacturer in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.

Key Benefits

  • MATCH-X accuracy foundation: Honed & lapped bore for exceptional consistency.
  • 5R rifling: Designed to reduce jacket deformation and support easier cleaning.
  • 416-R stainless steel: Excellent for precision barrels and stable performance.
  • Uncoated media-blast exterior: Signature matte stainless finish (no nitride coating).
  • Nickel Teflon extension: Dry lubricity and corrosion resistance at the receiver interface.
  • Precision crown: Recessed 11° target crown helps protect accuracy at the muzzle.
  • Rifle-length gas: Smooth recoil impulse and tuning flexibility for .308 AR10 builds.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Precision AR10 builds: Target profile supports stability for consistent groups.
  • Competition & target shooting: 20" length offers strong practical velocity and balance.
  • Field-capable .308 rigs: Rifle gas and target contour make for smooth, controllable shooting.
  • Suppressor-ready setups: 5/8x24 supports common .30-cal muzzle devices (verify alignment/mount specs).

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the MATCH-X Series different from Match Series?
MATCH-X Series barrels are honed and lapped for exceptional bore consistency and feature an uncoated, media-blasted stainless exterior. Match Series barrels are QPQ nitrided inside and out and are not honed and lapped.
Is this compatible with DPMS / LR-308 pattern AR10 receivers?
Yes. This barrel uses a DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension. Always confirm compatibility with your bolt, receiver set, and components.
Why choose a 20" .308 Win AR10 barrel with rifle-length gas?
A 20" .308 barrel is a popular balance of velocity and handling, and rifle-length gas helps deliver a smoother recoil impulse and tuning flexibility for precision-focused builds.
Does the bead blasted exterior mean the barrel is uncoated?
Yes. MATCH-X Series barrels feature an uncoated stainless exterior with a media-blasted (bead blasted) finish for a uniform matte appearance.
