Faxon Firearms Match Features The Faxon Firearms Match Barrel is chambered in 22 ARC and machined from 416-R stainless steel a material prized for its combination of corrosion resistance and accuracy potential in precision rifle applications. The barrel is stress relieved during manufacturing to minimize the internal tension that can cause a barrel to shift point of impact as it heats up during a shooting session. 5R button rifling is used to improve accuracy and consistency reducing bullet deformation compared to traditional land and groove rifling designs. The 1 in 7 inch twist rate is specifically matched to stabilize the heavier bullet weights commonly loaded for 22 ARC supporting the cartridge s long-range accuracy potential. At 22 inches long with a rifle-length gas system the barrel is tuned for long-range shooting applications where maximizing velocity and barrel time matters most. The bead blast finish gives the barrel a clean low-glare appearance that resists showing handling marks compared to a polished finish. The barrel extension carries a Nickel Teflon coating that provides dry lubricity and corrosion resistance while helping tighten the fit between the extension and the receiver for improved accuracy. Precision shooters and hunters building a dedicated long-range 22 ARC rifle will find the Faxon Match Barrel a well-engineered option backed by Faxon s reputation for quality barrel manufacturing.
