This video initiates a series focused on AR-15 barrel durability, starting with a baseline accuracy test comparing Melonite (QPQ) and chrome-lined barrels from Faxon Firearms. The barrels are described as "mil-spec" in materials and methodology, button-rifled, and stress-relieved. They were manufactured consecutively from the same batch, with bores visually matched. The chrome lining comes from the same shop that supplies Colt barrels. The series will eventually involve full-auto testing until failure.
This 2012 Gallery of Guns TV segment features the Marlin XL-7 Bolt Action Rifle with a heavy barrel. The description highlights its new class of hunting rifle, emphasizing Marlin's tradition of innovation, solid construction, dependability, and long-range accuracy. Key features mentioned include the Pro-Fire™ Adjustable Trigger, button-rifled barrel with a target-style crown, pillar-bedded stock, and Soft-Tech™ recoil pad, positioning it as a high-performance bolt-action option.
