Faxon's pencil barrels are renowned for their lightweight performance. Fully stress relieved and with a carefully designed barrel's taper to remove weight while maintaining performance. The result is the lightest barrel in the industry - and one they are fully confident to put their Faxon shield on.

Faxon's .308 barrels feature 1/10 twist rifling for full stabilization across all common .308 loadings. Their barrels are chambered to .308 Winchester SAAMI specification for maximum versatility. Manufactured in-house, these barrels are fully stress relieved, air-gauge tested, and 11 degree target crowned to ensure superior accuracy.

Quality is imbued into our barrels from the start. We start with the best materials, either certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless. From there, each barrel goes through a battery of tests at each operation until finished in Nitride and final inspected. All barrels are individually checked for headspace by precision custom hardened gauges.
