planeflyer21 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I'm curious as to why Nathan wouldn't post .308 barrel info on .308ARdotCom. Nice looking barrels though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EngrBob Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 I have two Faxon barrels, an 18" .308 Medium taper and a .223 16" pencil. Both are tack drivers and yes, why didn't Nathan post the .308 release here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Don't care for Mid length Gas system on a 308 Barrel. I like the Barrel contours though , not a fan of Flutes . JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
