Description

The Faxon Firearms Match Series AR10 barrel (brand part no. 10B810R20FHQ-5R-NP3) is a 20-inch .308 Winchester barrel built for accuracy-focused AR10 builds. Machined from 416-R stainless steel with 5R button rifling, it uses a 1:10 twist rate suited to a wide range of .308 bullet weights. Faxon finishes the bore and exterior in a salt bath nitride for corrosion resistance and long service life, then adds heavy fluting to shave weight without sacrificing barrel stiffness. With a DPMS LR-308 compatible extension and a rifle-length gas system, it is a strong upgrade for precision or general-purpose AR10 rifles built on the DPMS pattern.
