Faxon Gunner Profile 338 ARC Barrel
The Faxon Gunner profile represents a thoughtful compromise between competing demands in modern rifle design. This barrel strikes an intelligent balance between the robust durability of the Government profile and the weight-conscious efficiency of the Pencil profile.
Design Philosophy

By redistributing weight toward the receiver, this design brings the rifle's balance point closer to your body. The practical result is reduced fatigue during extended shooting sessions, whether you're training at the range, hunting in the field, or running drills.
