Build a long-range precision rifle with exceptional ballistics using the Faxon Match Series 16" 6.5 Grendel Gunner Barreled Upper—a factory-assembled barreled upper assembly designed for superior accuracy, flat trajectories, and lightweight handling in an AR-15 platform. This barreled upper includes the barrel, enhanced forged AR15 upper receiver, fixed low-profile gas block, mid-length stainless gas tube, 15" M-LOK handguard, and MuzzLok® ported flash hider—ideal for varmint control, deer hunting, PRS-style competition, or any application needing high-BC performance and mild recoil out to 600+ yards (requires BCG, charging handle, and lower to complete).
Centered on a Match Series 16" Gunner-profile 6.5 Grendel barrel (4150 CMV steel, Nickel Teflon extension, 1:8 twist, mid-length gas), paired with Faxon's enhanced forged AR15 upper receiver and modified feed ramps for reliable feeding. The fixed .750" low-profile gas block and mid-length stainless gas tube deliver smooth cycling, while the MuzzLok® ported flash hider reduces muzzle rise and flash for faster follow-ups. The Streamline 15" M-LOK handguard provides modular accessory mounting and balanced ergonomics. Made in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio with Faxon's lifetime warranty.
