Faxon Firearms Match Series AR-15 Barrel 16in Pencil .223 Wylde 5R 1:8 Mid-Length 15BW8M16NPQ-5R-NP3
Product Description
The Faxon Firearms Match Series 16" Pencil Profile .223 Wylde AR-15 barrel is engineered for shooters who want match-grade performance in an ultra-lightweight configuration. Made from 416R stainless steel and button-rifled with 5R rifling, it is designed to reduce jacket deformation for consistent velocity, enhanced accuracy, and easier cleaning. The .223 Wylde chamber supports precise .223 Remington performance while remaining safely compatible with 5.56 NATO pressures. For durability and low maintenance, the barrel is nitride treated inside and out, and the M4 barrel extension is finished with a Nickel Teflon coating for corrosion resistance, dry lubricity, and improved receiver fit. Each barrel is individually quality-checked (including magnetic particle inspection and headspace verification) for dependable performance.
