Description

A faster 1:5 Twist Rate combined with the Lightweight Faxon Gunner Profile.

The 300 Blackout cartridge yields increased performance in shorter barrels and effective subsonic performance. By speeding up the twist rate to 1:5 from common 300 BLK rates of 1:7 and 1:8, these Faxon Match Series Gunner Barrels increase projectile stabilization and energy on target.

The Gunner profile is a blend of two of the best performing profiles of all time, GOVT/SOCOM and Pencil. Faxon's Gunner profile combines the durability of the GOVT/SOCOM 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 Firearms barrels are the pinnacle of value. Manufactured in-house in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio, Faxon barrels are fully stress relieved, air-gauge tested, and 11-degree target crowned to ensure superior accuracy. Quality is imbued into Faxon Firearms barrels from the beginning of the manufacturing process. Faxon Match Series Barrels are made of 416-R Stainless Steel, given 5R rifling, and a NP3 (Nickel Teflon) barrel extension. Faxon barrels are Magnetic Particle Inspected (MPI) in-house do assure the greatest quality for a lifetime of service.

    Faxon Match 7.5 Gunner 300 blackout 1:5 twist

    Posted by Dennis Clark on Feb 25th 2024

    I have purchased several Faxon barrels and researched the 1:3 and 1:5 twist barrels. When I saw this 1:5 in 300 blackout, I jumped on it. Shot it this morning and was very happy with this purchase. Outstanding barrel. Its my favorite and love it. Kudos to Faxon.

    A real winner

    Posted by Andrew on Feb 19th 2024

    While I may have some complaints with the 10.5, this barrel is a real treat. It likely outshoots my skill, and the craftsmanship is absolutely spot-on. Not sure if anyone else produces the 1:5, but this is where it's at for subsonic shooting! Haven't really tested accuracy (or gassiness) for supers, but I can't think of a better value product for shooting subsonic! Likely irrelevant for most users, but the Nickel Teflon extension is slightly over-spec, and mating this to an under-spec'd BCM upper had me sweating bullets that something was going to break...

    Perfect length IMO. I have this barrel running on my SBR, I'm using standard buffer and an adj gas block. Shoots perfect, suppressed and not supressed. This is my backpack SBR and I couldn't be hoppier. I'm on 4 Faxon barrels and will not buy anything else.

    7.5" 1/5 twist 300 blk barrel

    Posted by MattK on Jul 29th 2022

    Love the barrel, running 100% supressed with an SLR Sentry adjustable gas block. Getting 1" groups @ 25yrds standing with Winchester 200gr HP subs. Running a Spike's Tactical lightweight bcg with Spike's T3 buffer and chrome silicone buffer spring.

    So far so good.

    Posted by erron gunter on Jul 2nd 2022

    Just finished upper less than 100rds through barrel at this point, accuracy is better than my capabilities at this time. Shoots 110 and 155 loads with equal accuracy, 220s as well just have not tested accuracy with the 220s. Very happy with this barrel and hoping the 1/5 is of some benefit to bullet expansion, time will tell. As stated barrel is very accurate with multiple bullets weights, does well with suppressor, fit and finish are excellent and price is very reasonable.

    Fits my needs for a build in progress, availability & pricing were both positive factors.

    Posted by Robert on Jun 24th 2022

    Purchased to upgrade a build I had built earlier. Wanted to try a different set up. Looking very much to get it out on the range & do some comparisons.
