Faxon Firearms
The Faxon Firearms 6 GT 26" Nitride 416-R Stainless Barrel is a precision rifle barrel built for shooters who demand durability and consistent accuracy. Whether you're assembling a custom rifle, replacing a worn-out tube, or upgrading an existing platform, this 26-inch barrel delivers the performance you need for long-range hunting, competition, or precision shooting. The 6 GT cartridge has earned respect among precision rifle shooters for its flat trajectory and excellent velocity, and Faxon's reputation for manufacturing quality means you're starting with a rock-solid foundation.
Faxon barrels are known for tight tolerances and superior finish work. This barrel combines 416-R stainless steel — a material prized for corrosion resistance and dimensional stability — with Faxon's proprietary nitride hardening process. Nitride finish on stainless creates a protective layer that resists wear, reduces fouling, and extends barrel life, especially important if you're running high round counts or competitive shooting schedules.
The 26-inch length strikes a balance between velocity and practical handling, and the 6 GT's modern design means you're not tied to legacy components or hard-to-source ammunition. This is the kind of barrel that rewards careful shooters with consistent groups and reliable performance across distance. Whether you're building your first precision rifle or your fifth, a Faxon barrel is a smart choice that won't nickel-and-dime you with accuracy problems down the line.

The 6 GT is a modern precision rifle cartridge that delivers excellent velocity, flat trajectory, and inherent accuracy. It's become popular in long-range hunting and competition shooting. This Faxon barrel is built specifically for 6 GT and takes advantage of the cartridge's ballistic advantages with a 26-inch length that optimizes velocity while remaining manageable in the field.
Nitride hardening creates a protective surface layer on the steel that resists erosion and fouling better than bare stainless alone. It extends barrel life, especially under high-volume shooting, and makes cleaning easier. Combined with 416-R stainless, this barrel is built to last and perform across thousands of rounds.
A barrel replacement or build requires gunsmithing expertise and specialized tools. We recommend consulting with a qualified gunsmith or a barrel installation guide specific to your rifle platform. A properly installed and headspaced barrel is critical to safe and accurate operation.
Yes. The 6 GT's ballistics and the 26-inch length make this a solid choice for precision hunting at distance and for target shooting competition. It's a versatile barrel for any serious precision rifle application.
