All barrels feature crisp CNC markings, precision muzzle crown, and a chamber and gas port optimized for reliability.

6.5 Creedmoor

The 6.5 Creedmoor is a top choice for precision rifle competitors and hunters looking for the optimum AR-based extended-range cartridge. It makes ultra-long-range shooting an easy proposition and offers similar long-range trajectories to a .300 Winchester Magnum with less felt recoil than a comparable .308 rifle. The high ballistic coefficient bullets loaded in the 6.5 caliber make this downrange performance possible because they have less wind drift and more retained energy than a comparable .30 caliber bullet at 1000 yards. When seeking the best extended-range shooting or hunting performance in an AR platform rifle, the 6.5 Creedmoor is the logical choice. With a wide variety of quality factory ammunition available and .308 AR magazine and receiver compatibility, the 6.5 Creedmoor is in a performance class by itself.

Wilson Combat Super Sniper Profile Barrels

There are times when extreme accuracy and rapid follow-up shots are the most important criteria when selecting a rifle. Those were the primary objectives of the engineers at Wilson Combat® when they designed the Super Sniper– and the result far exceeded our expectations. It has a long, heavy-weight, stainless steel premium match-grade barrel– optimized for accuracy with the longer, heavier bullets frequently used for longer-range shooting. The Super Sniper is engineered, designed, and built to deliver unmatched accuracy, and it does in an almost unbelievable fashion.

Wilson Combat AR Barrel Service Policy

Because of the nature of the AR parts business and varying pressures of commercially available ammunition, Wilson Combat cannot guarantee function in customer-built AR rifles. We recommend a competent rifle-smith install all components.

If you assemble a firearm with Wilson Combat components and it fails to function, you first need to check the fit of the barrel to the gas block and the overall condition of your rifle’s gas system/bolt carrier group to ensure your system isn’t leaking gas. As buffers and springs play a role in overall reliability, the use of an aftermarket-style buffer system is not recommended. When using an adjustable gas block, reliability is best achieved at the fully open setting without any gas port restriction.

Wilson Combat will not troubleshoot customer-built firearms/uppers.

Cry Havoc Takedown Kit (QRB Barrel Kit)

Cry Havoc Tactical takes their QRB (Quick Release Barrel) Upper Receiver Takedown Kit and scales it up for the big guns!
Designed for your AR 308 or 6.5 Creedmoor the QRB allows you to quickly detach the barrel giving you the ability to store or carry your rifle in a much-reduced profile and then when needed quickly reassemble the rifle while holding within 1 MOA.

Each Cry Havoc Takedown Kit contains complete instructions and all parts to convert your rifle or without drilling or any permanent modifications. Although they recommend installation be done by a Gunsmith, if you can install a barrel on an upper receiver, you can install this kit. Simple hand tools, an Armour’s wrench, and receiver block/vise are all that are needed. Returning your rifle or pistol back to stock is as easy as the installation.

The QRB main body is Hard Anodized Aluminum and the Stainless-Steel hooks, levers, star nut, and gas extension are finished in Black Nitride for maximum durability.

Available from Brownells

Once the QRB Kit is installed, it is amazingly quick to assemble your rifle or pistol without the worry of damaging your gas tube. The operator would simply lock the bolt back, insert the barrel extension into the receiver, rotate the barrel until the alignment pin enters the alignment hole, and then seat the barrel in place. Next, hook the two clips on the receiver plate and engage the levers to the closed position, never taking your hand off the pistol grip. Nothing to depress! Just drop the bolt and you are ready to fire… All in less than 6 seconds!

To remove the barrel assembly for storage, first, remove the magazine, lock the bolt back, check for an empty chamber, pull levers away from the handguard, remove hooks from the receiver plate and pull the barrel away from the receiver. Just that simple. No barrel rattling around in the handguard or gloves needed! Make sure to check out the videos in the Media Tab to see these steps happen in real-time. You will be amazed.

  •  The QRB Kit is only compatible with Free Float Hand Guards 2.2″ wide or less and will add 1.7″ to the length of the Hand Guard.
  • Purchase the correct kit by selecting the proper length gas tube to your barrels gas system length.

BSF 308 Barrel .308 Winchester Carbon Fiber 16 Inch Black

I have wanted a carbon fiber wrapped .308 barrel for quite some time, but three things have stopped me up until this point, necessity, price, and accuracy. For this build, the necessity comes from the desire to reduce weight, and the 16″ carbon fiber-wrapped, fluted barrel weighs nearly 25% percent less than my similar Criterion Hybrid .308 barrel. The price, well it is what it is. Regarding accuracy, some carbon fire barrels have a reputation for stringing when they get hot, BSF does not.

The .308 Winchester chambered 16 inch BSF Carbon Fiber Barrel appears to be the obvious choice for my new “CT Other Lightweight 308 AR build“. I’m looking forward to completing the build to see what this barrel can do.

Note: As I have mentioned repeatedly I like to support vendors who make good products and are responsive to customers. When I decided to order a barrel there was zero stock. I sent off an email to BSF and within hours I was able to claim the last .308 Winchester blank allotted to their next barrel run. True to their word forty days later I had my awesome carbon fiber wrapped barrel in hand. BSF is a great company to deal with, and they stand by their barrels.

BSF 308 Barrel 308 Winchester Carbon Fiber Barrel 16 Inch Black

Impressive Accuracy From a Lightweight, Futuristic Looking BSF 308 Barrel

BSF builds their .308 match-grade carbon fiber barrels with exceptional attention to detail that ensures you’ll achieve the best possible accuracy from your 308 AR-pattern rifle without getting a hernia lugging it around! BSF 308 barrels are turned from ordnance-grade 416R stainless steel, then given a roll-wrapped, tensioned, carbon fiber sleeve. The sleeve keeps weight down while providing excellent rigidity, coupled with enhanced cooling.

Why the sleeve method, rather than simple carbon fiber wrapping? The BSF folks believe wrapping traps heat and, as a result, is more likely to delaminate. Further, BSF uses a special carbon fiber that expands at the same rate as the 416R, and holes drilled into the jacket allow air to circulate around the barrel and vent heat quickly. Less heat distortion means far less risk of accuracy fade as your .308 Winchester chambered AR308 barrel heats up.

  • Fits .308 sized AR upper receiver
  • 5R button-rifled
  • 5/8″-24 TPI muzzle threads
  • .875″ O.D.
  • Barrel extension included
  • Requires RIFLE-length gas tube
  • Weight 28.4 ounces (16″ Fluted)
  • 11° Target Crown
  • DPMS Platform

BSF offers their .308 Winchester carbon fiber match barrels with a 1-10″ rifling twist effectively stabilizes that widest variety of popular bullet weights. And each barrel is thoroughly inspected by an experienced technician before leaving the BSF shop, ensuring you get a BSF 308 Barrel that’s as accurate as it is good looking!


From the Manufacturer

ALL AR-10 BARRELS ARE DPMS PLATFORM

Current lead times on our barrels can be up to 12+ weeks. Some calibers will ship sooner than others but at this point, we are no longer guaranteeing that a barrel will be shipped by a certain date due to delays in materials for our production team and high volume of orders. 

After turning down the barrel, we jacket a 416R Stainless steel match barrel in a roll-wrapped carbon fiber sleeve and load it under tension.  We use this jacketing method rather than wrapping the barrel in carbon fiber because this method of wrapping has been proven to trap heat and cause delamination.

The carbon fiber we use is specially designed to move at the same expansion rate as 416R stainless steel. We machine slots into the carbon fiber allowing air to move around the barrel and vent heat quicker without any delamination issues.  Using the Carbon Fiber this way keeps the rifling straighter the warmer the barrel gets because it’s under tension. This allows us to maintain superior stiffness and strength while keeping the barrel extremely lightweight.

FAXON FIREARMS BIG GUNNER PROFILE 308 AR DROP-IN BARREL

Picture of a FAXON FIREARMS BIG GUNNER PROFILE 308 AR BARREL

FAXON FIREARMS BIG GUNNER PROFILE 308 AR BARREL .308 Winchester

The Faxon Firearms Big Gunner .308 Win. Barrel’s profile is a marriage of Faxon’s Government and Pencil profiles that gives balance of manageable weight and high accuracy potential. It has the Government taper from the barrel extension to the gas block, then transitions to a Pencil profile from the block to the muzzle. Keeping weight at the rear maximizes rigidity and resistance to heat distortion, while removing it up front moves the center of gravity to the rear, keeping your “AR-308” nicely maneuverable.

Each Big Gunner .308 Win. barrel is machined from triple stress-relieved 416R stainless steel, and finished it with a tough, wear-resistant matte black QPQ Nitride finish.

  • Fits DPMS LR-308 Gen1 pattern upper receiver OR Armalite AR-10 upper when used with Faxon Bolt Carrier Group (not included)
  • 5R rifling with 1-10″ twist ensures both accuracy & easy of cleaning
  • 11° target crowned muzzle
  • 5/8″-24 threaded muzzle
  • Each barrel individually checked for headspace with custom gauges

Faxon Big Gunner .308 Win. Barrels are available in 16″ length drilled for a mid-length gas tube, as well as 18″ and 20″ lengths drilled for a standard rifle gas tube.

Gun Tech Note: These barrels are chambered for .308 Winchester. 7.62×51 NATO ammo requires deeper head spacing but will normally will fit the chamber and function. However, Faxon does not guarantee the function of 7.62×51 ammunition, particularly with tight, “mach” .308 Win headspacing.

Proof Research Recommends the JP Rifles High Pressure Bolt JPEB-308HP

JP Rifles JPEB-308HP

JP High Pressure EnhancedBolt™ Bolt Assembly
Caliber: .308 Win. caliber
Finish: Chromium Nitride

This bolt assembly is compatible with the JP LRP-07 and the DPMS LR-308 platforms (or clones thereof) only and cannot be used to replace bolts in the Armalite AR-10 platform (or clones thereof). This bolt uses a specialized firing pin that is not compatible with other bolts nor can it use standard .308 firing pins.

WARNING: The JP .308HP bolt does not allow for the use of excessive pressure, overloaded ammunition that exceeds SAAMI specifications. When evaluating new ammunition, always start on the low- to mid-range of any published load data and work up. A good indicator of working pressure is the primer retention on the subsequent loading of a case. A noticeable loss of primer pocket tension indicates that your ammunition has excessive pressure and has overworked the case.
