Faxon's Match series barrels represent the pinnacle of our commitment to performance and value. Crafted in-house from high-quality gun-barrel-grade bar-stock, the Match series begins with 416-R stainless steel and features precision-engineered 5R rifling. This innovative rifling design, characterized by lands opposite grooves and reduced sharp angles, minimizes jacket deformation, enhances velocity and facilitates effortless cleaning. Following meticulous testing, each barrel undergoes a comprehensive nitride treatment inside and out. This process not only fortifies the bore but also extends barrel life while providing robust protection against the elements. The barrel extension is specially coated with nickel teflon, ensuring exceptional dry lubricity and corrosion resistance. This coating also enhances the fit between the extension and receiver, further refining accuracy. In concert, these features equip the Match series barrels to excel under demanding conditions, whether responding to duty calls or performing at competitive events, offering unparalleled performance and value.
