FAXON MATCH SERIES HEAVY FLUTED 24" RIFLE-LENGTH 6.5 CREEDMOOR AR10 BARREL
Faxon Match Series AR10 Barrel — Heavy Fluted 24" 6.5 Creedmoor (1:8 Twist, Rifle Gas)
416-R stainless steel • 5R button rifled • Salt bath nitride (QPQ) inside & out • Heavy fluted profile • Nickel Teflon coated extension • MPI inspected • Recessed target crown • Rifle-length gas • .750" gas block journal • 5/8x24 muzzle threads
The Faxon Match Series Heavy Fluted 24" 6.5 Creedmoor AR10 barrel is engineered for shooters who demand a balance of precision, durability, and weight optimization in long-range AR10 platforms. Designed for competition, precision target shooting, and refined hunting builds, this barrel delivers repeatable accuracy without unnecessary mass.
Match Series barrels are manufactured in-house from 416-R stainless steel and feature 5R button rifling, a geometry that reduces bullet jacket deformation and supports consistent velocities while remaining easy to maintain. After rifling, each barrel is treated with a salt bath nitride (QPQ) process inside and out, improving wear resistance, corrosion protection, and barrel life under sustained use.
The heavy fluted profile reduces weight while maintaining rigidity and increasing surface area for improved heat dissipation. A Nickel Teflon coated DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension enhances corrosion resistance and smooth fitment at the receiver interface. Finished with a recessed target crown and MPI inspected, this barrel is proudly American-made by a family-owned manufacturer in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of heavy fluting?
Heavy fluting reduces overall barrel weight while maintaining stiffness and increasing surface area for improved heat dissipation during extended firing strings.
How does Match Series differ from AXIS Series?
Match Series barrels use a QPQ nitride finish inside and out for durability, while AXIS Series barrels feature a honed and lapped bore with a non-coated stainless exterior for maximum dimensional consistency.
Is this barrel compatible with DPMS / LR-308 AR10 receivers?
Yes. This barrel uses a DPMS/LR-308 compatible extension. Always verify compatibility with your receiver set, bolt, and components.
Is this barrel suitable for suppressor use?
The 5/8x24 muzzle threads support most .30-caliber muzzle devices and suppressor mounts. Always verify alignment and manufacturer specifications prior to use.
