Faxon Firearms Match Series 223 Wylde 16" 1:8 5R Gunner AR-15 Barrel - 416-R Stainless - Matte

The Faxon Firearms Match Series .223 Wylde 16" barrel delivers true match-grade performance in a lightweight, do-everything Gunner profile. Machined from certified 416-R stainless steel and finished in a tough matte nitride coating, it features a 5R button-rifled bore with a 1:8 twist that stabilizes a wide range of bullet weights. The .223 Wylde chamber safely handles both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO pressure levels, making this an ideal drop-in barrel for a serious AR-15 build.

At 16" with a mid-length gas system, the Gunner contour keeps the rifle fast-handling while retaining the stiffness required for repeatable accuracy. The extension is treated with NP3 nickel-Teflon for added corrosion and wear resistance, and the entire barrel is proudly made in the USA to Faxon's exacting quality standards. Whether chasing tight groups at the range or running drills, this Match Series barrel is engineered to perform.
