Barreled Actions

Gunner

Faxon’s proprietary lightweight contour — thinner than a standard sporter, thicker than a pencil. Designed for field rifles where every ounce matters. Available in .308 Win (18") and 6.5 CM (20").

Medium Sporter

Balances rigidity and weight for field and suppressed use. Available on 8.6 BLK barrels (12" and 16"), where the heavier contour handles the demands of .338-caliber pressures and suppressor weight.

M24

Heavy contour based on the military M24 SWS barrel profile. Maximum thermal stability and sustained-fire accuracy. Available in .308 Win (22") and 6.5 CM (24").

Triggers

Compatible with Remington® 700-pattern triggers including TriggerTech, Timney, Bix’n Andy, and Jewel.

Stocks & Chassis

Fits Rem 700 SA stocks and chassis from KRG, MDT, Magpul, XLR, Manners, McMillan, and Bell & Carlson. Some stocks may require minor inletting for the FX7 trigger hanger.

Magazines

AICS and AW pattern magazines (Magpul PMAG AICS, MDT, Accurate-Mag). All calibers feed from standard .308-format AICS magazines.

Barrel Swaps

Swap calibers with FX7 Prefit barrels (thread directly onto the receiver — no gunsmith required), RemAge-style barrels, or profiled barrel blanks.

A barreled action is the core of a bolt-action rifle: the action (receiver), bolt, and barrel assembled together. Every Faxon FX7 barreled action ships with the barrel torqued to 65 ft-lbs and headspace verified with a GO gage at the factory. It is not a complete rifle — you still need a trigger, stock or chassis, and magazine to complete your build.

Yes. Every FX7 barreled action includes the complete bolt assembly — 4340 carbon steel bolt body with flame fluting, M16-style extractor, plunger ejector, firing pin, cocking piece, bolt shroud, bolt handle, and all springs and pins.

You need a Remington 700 pattern trigger (TriggerTech, Timney, Bix’n Andy, etc.), a Rem 700 short-action stock or chassis (KRG, MDT, Magpul, XLR, Manners, McMillan), and an AICS or AW pattern magazine. Optionally, add a scope, rings, bipod, and suppressor. Faxon’s Bolt Action Builder tool can help you configure a complete build.

Yes. Every FX7 barreled action is headspaced and verified in-house at Faxon before shipment. The barrel is torqued to 65 ft-lbs and headspace is checked with a GO gage specific to the chambered caliber.

FX7 barreled actions are currently available in .308 Winchester (18" Gunner and 22" M24), 6.5 Creedmoor (20" Gunner and 24" M24), and 8.6 Blackout (12" and 16" Medium Sporter with 1:3 twist). All use the same .308 bolt face, so you can swap calibers later with an FX7 Prefit barrel. Additional calibers including 6GT and 6mm Creedmoor are coming soon.

Gunner is Faxon’s proprietary lightweight contour for field rifles where weight is a priority. Medium Sporter is a mid-weight contour that balances rigidity and portability, used on 8.6 BLK barrels. M24 is a heavy contour based on the military M24 Sniper Weapon System barrel profile, offering maximum thermal stability for sustained-fire precision. All three use 5R button rifling with honed and lapped bores.

Yes. The FX7 is designed for user-serviceable barrel changes. FX7 Prefit barrels are headspaced at the factory and thread directly onto the receiver — no gunsmith required. The FX7 is also compatible with RemAge-style barrels and profiled barrel blanks for custom work. Faxon offers barrels in .308 Win, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6mm Creedmoor, 6GT, and 8.6 BLK (1:3 and 1:6 twist). Use the FX7 Action Wrench for barrel changes.

Yes. The FX7 uses the Remington 700 short-action footprint and is compatible with Remington 700 pattern triggers (TriggerTech, Timney, Bix’n Andy, Jewel), chassis systems (KRG, MDT, Magpul, XLR), and stocks (Manners, McMillan, Bell & Carlson). Some stocks may require minor inletting to accommodate the FX7 trigger hanger. AICS and AW pattern magazines are supported.

If you already know the caliber and barrel length you want and prefer the fastest path to a finished rifle, buy a barreled action — the barrel is installed, torqued, and headspaced at the factory. If you want to choose your own barrel (different caliber, contour, or length) or plan to use a profiled blank from a custom gunsmith, buy a standalone FX7 receiver and pair it with an FX7 Prefit or RemAge-style barrel.

FX7 barreled actions are designed, machined, assembled, and inspected by Faxon Firearms at their facility in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. Faxon is an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer with a precision machining heritage dating to 1978. All FX7 barreled actions are covered by Faxon’s Lifetime Guarantee.
