Faxon Firearms Gunner 16" 22ARC Nickel Barrel - Model 15B22A7R16NGQ5RNP3$221.18
Availability: In Stock
The Faxon Firearms 24" Heavy Fluted 22 ARC Nickel Barrel is built for shooters who demand precision without compromise. This Match Series barrel brings Faxon's in-house manufacturing expertise and attention to detail to the 22 ARC platform, making it an excellent choice for long-range hunting, precision rifle competition, and serious range work. The 24-inch length paired with a rifle-length gas system delivers the velocity and dwell time needed to run the 22 ARC efficiently while maintaining the accuracy required for extending your effective range.
Built from 416-R stainless steel and manufactured in Faxon's Greater Cincinnati facility, this barrel starts with quality bar-stock and receives 5R button rifling—a hybrid design that reduces sharp angles and jacket deformation for better velocity and easier cleaning. The 1/7 twist rate is optimized to stabilize heavier 22 ARC projectiles, and the recessed target crown protects accuracy shot after shot. Inside and out, the bore is treated with salt bath nitride, which locks in hardness, extends barrel life, and resists corrosion in the field or at the range.
The heavy fluted profile reduces weight without sacrificing rigidity, and the M4 barrel extension receives a nickel teflon coating that improves dry lubricity and corrosion resistance while tightening fit with your receiver for better accuracy. The 1/2x28 muzzle thread accommodates standard suppressors and brakes, and the .750" gas block journal accepts most quality adjustable gas blocks—Faxon recommends using one to fine-tune reliability with your specific ammunition and bolt carrier group.
Every Faxon Match Series barrel undergoes magnetic particle inspection before leaving the facility, ensuring you're getting a barrel built to perform. This is a no-nonsense component for builders and shooters who value precision engineering and American manufacturing.
