The Faxon Firearms Gunner Match Series .223 Wylde 16" Salt Bath Nitride 416R Stainless Steel offers a precision-focused rifle barrel designed for accurate AR-15 platforms, featuring a 16" length, 1:8" twist, 5R button rifled bore, and a durable Salt Bath Nitride finish on 416R stainless steel to balance wear resistance and long-term performance. This Gunner model blends Faxons reputation for match-grade accuracy with reliable chambering that accommodates both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition, enabling smooth handloads and factory rounds alike while maintaining consistent velocity and group stability. The 5R rifling geometry reduces copper fouling and improves projectile alignment, supporting tight, repeatable groups at practical field and range distances. With its clean, corrosion-resistant finish and robust construction, the barrel is well-suited for precision-oriented bench work, varmint hunting, or tactical-style sporting use where dependable performance and extended service life matter. Faxon Firearms delivers a thoughtfully engineered option that pairs an ergonomic profile with proven amplification of accuracy potential, helping shooters maximize their hit potential across varied light, wind, and terrain conditions.
