Availability: In Stock
The Faxon Ar10 Bbl 6.5 Creedmoor 24" 1:8 5R Heavy Fluted is a precision rifle barrel purpose-built for shooters who demand accuracy at distance. Built from triple stress-relieved 416R stainless steel, this 24-inch heavy fluted barrel pairs long-range ballistics with a design that sheds weight without sacrificing rigidity—the fluting actually increases barrel stiffness while improving heat dissipation during sustained fire. At this length with a 1-in-8 twist, it's optimized to stabilize 6.5 Creedmoor projectiles across the full spectrum of match and hunting loads, making it equally at home on the precision rifle range or in a hunting rifle build.
Every Faxon barrel ships through a rigorous quality gauntlet, including Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI), to catch hidden flaws that could compromise accuracy or durability. The bore is button-rifled with a 5R pattern—lands offset over the grooves—which means bullets ride down the barrel without distortion and the sharp corners that catch fouling are eliminated. Cleaning is faster and easier than traditional rifling, and accuracy doesn't suffer one bit. The matte black QPQ Nitride finish is applied inside and out for corrosion resistance and durability in the field, while the NP3-coated barrel extension adds an extra layer of protection where it counts.
The muzzle is crowned with an 11-degree target profile and threaded 5/8"-24 for brakes, compensators, flash hiders, or suppressors. Whether you're building a precision long-range AR-10 or hunting rifle, or upgrading an existing upper, this barrel gives you the accuracy foundation competitive shooters and serious hunters expect.
| Caliber | 6.5 Creedmoor |
| Barrel Length | 24 inches |
| Twist Rate | 1:8 |
| Rifling Pattern | 5R button rifled |
| Material | 416R stainless steel (triple stress-relieved) |
| Finish | Matte black QPQ Nitride (interior and exterior); NP3-coated extension |
| Muzzle Thread | 5/8"-24 |
| Muzzle Crown | 11-degree target |
| Barrel Configuration | Heavy fluted |
Yes. The Faxon Ar10 Bbl is designed as an AR-10 component and uses the standard AR-10 barrel extension with the threaded configuration specified here.
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8"-24, which is the standard for suppressors, brakes, flash hiders, and compensators in this caliber and platform.
5R rifling has lands (the raised parts) offset over grooves, so the bullet travels without the sharp corners of conventional rifling catching and deforming it. This reduces bore fouling, makes cleaning easier, and can improve accuracy and longevity of both barrel and bullet.
Fluting removes material from the barrel exterior while actually increasing barrel stiffness and improving heat dissipation. This helps the barrel cool faster during extended shooting, reducing thermal shift that can affect zero—valuable on the range or during a long hunt.
