The Gunner profile represents a synthesis of two proven designs: the Gov’t and Pencil profiles. By combining the durability of the Gov’t profile with the weight savings and handling characteristics of the Pencil profile, Faxon’s Gunner profile shifts the rifle’s balance toward the shooter, reducing fatigue during shooting, training, or hunting.
Faxon Firearms barrels are manufactured in-house in Cincinnati, Ohio, and represent exceptional value. Each barrel begins with premium materials—either certified 4150 Mil-Spec steel or 416-R Stainless—and undergoes full stress relief, air-gauge testing, and 11 degree target crowning to deliver superior accuracy. Quality control is integrated throughout production, with each barrel subjected to a comprehensive test protocol at every operation. Following Nitride finishing, all barrels receive individual headspace verification using precision PTG gauges.
This Match Series 22 ARC 16 Inch barrel is built to perform through extended use.
