Faxon Match Series 16″ Gunner 22 ARC 416R SS Salt Bath Nitride 5R Rifle‑Length Barrel

The Faxon Match Series 16″ Gunner 22 ARC barrel is crafted for precision shooters who demand consistency and durability at extended ranges. Machined from 416R stainless steel and treated with a salt bath nitride finish inside and out, this barrel resists corrosion and maintains straightness under heavy use. Its Gunner profile combines the stability of government contours with the weight savings of a pencil taper, delivering exceptional harmonic performance and reducing barrel whip for tighter shot groups.

Chambered in the specialized 22 ARC cartridge, the 1:7 twist rate and 5R button rifling optimize bullet stabilization for heavy match and factory ammunition alike. The rifle‑length gas system with a .750″ gas block journal provides smooth cycling and mitigated recoil impulse, making this barrel ideal for precision rifles and suppressed platforms. The 1/2×28 TPI muzzle thread accepts a variety of muzzle devices or suppressors, while the M4 feed‑ramp extension with nickel Teflon NP3 treatment guarantees secure lockup and corrosion resistance.

Weighing 1.57 lbs and measuring 16″ in overall length, this barrel balances mass for stability without excessive weight. A recessed target crown ensures uniform gas release and minimal muzzle disturbance, directly enhancing accuracy. Each barrel is magnetic particle inspected and air‑gauge tested to verify bore straightness and dimensional integrity. Whether you’re building a match rifle, a tactical spr, or a competition rig, the Faxon 16″ Gunner 22 ARC barrel delivers the precision and reliability you need.
