Faxon Firearms Remage 700 8.6" 16 Nitride Mod LT Palma Barrel

The Faxon Firearms RemAge 700 8.6" 16 Nitride Mod LT Palma barrel is a precision rifle barrel purpose-built for the 8.6 Blackout cartridge and compatible with Remington 700-style actions. Developed in partnership with Q, this 8.6 BLK barrel channels rotational energy downrange through a 1:3 twist rate, engineered to maximize terminal performance at distance. Whether you're building a dedicated long-range rig, a suppressed hunting rifle, or exploring what the 8.6 BLK platform can do, this barrel delivers the accuracy foundation serious shooters demand.

Faxon manufactures every barrel from raw 416-R stainless steel stock in their Cincinnati facility, subjecting each one to full stress relief, air-gauge testing, and magnetic particle inspection before Nitride finishing. The 11-degree target crown ensures consistent, repeatable accuracy. Like all Faxon barrels, this one ships pre-checked for headspace using precision custom hardened gauges and backed by a lifetime guarantee—confidence you can build on.

The package includes everything you need to get started: a thread protector, taper adapter, and Faxon RemAge-style barrel nut that works with a standard AR armorer's castlenut wrench. Installation on your Remington 700 action is straightforward for gunsmiths or experienced builders. Note that 8.6 Blackout is not yet SAAMI certified, so exercise appropriate caution with factory and reloaded ammunition as the cartridge continues to mature.
