Faxon Match Series .223 Wylde 20" Heavy Fluted Barrel

Precision Engineering for the Discerning Rifleman

The Faxon Match Series represents the pinnacle of barrel manufacturing for the serious AR15 shooter. Built from premium 416-R stainless steel bar stock, each barrel is manufactured in-house to exacting specifications.

Superior Rifling Design

The 5R rifling profile is a hybrid design that offers distinct advantages over conventional rifling:

• Reduced jacket deformation — Lands positioned opposite grooves minimize bullet jacket damage
• Increased velocity — Less friction and deformation translate to higher muzzle velocities
• Easier cleaning — The hybrid profile reduces fouling and simplifies maintenance

The .223 Wylde Advantage

The .223 Wylde chamber is a hybrid design that maximizes the potential of 5R rifling. It provides:

• Tighter bullet seating — Reduced bullet jump improves accuracy
• Superior consistency — Chambers both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition safely
• Enhanced precision — Every barrel is individually MPI tested for quality assurance

Durability and Corrosion Resistance

After rigorous testing, each barrel receives a Nitride treatment applied inside and out. This process:

• Locks in the bore dimensions for long-term accuracy
• Extends barrel life significantly
• Provides superior corrosion resistance
• Maintains performance in harsh environments

The extension is coated in Nickel Teflon, which maintains exceptional dry lubricity and corrosion resistance while tightening the fit between extension and receiver—further enhancing accuracy.
