Product Overview
Innovation is the leading principle at Christensen Arms and this 18-inch carbon fiber barrel is a prime example. Chambered for .308 Winchester, this barrel will fit the needs of many precision target shooting, hunting, and competitive shooters. The .308 Winchester cartridge is a heavy-hitting bullet that is capable of taking large game at medium to long distances. It is a relatively soft recoiling round for such a large round and combined with the lightweight carbon fiber barrel, makes this an excellent option for taking on long hunts. This barrel weights in under 2.47lbs and will fit AR10 style receivers easily, making your rifle lighter, more durable, and more accurate than most of the competition.
Features:
The Christensen Arms barrels are precision engineered from a match-grade 416R stainless steel barrel blank and are cut down to reduce weight. The barrel is then wrapped in a proprietary layered carbon fiber design that keeps the overall weight low while increasing accuracy and heat dissipation. Christensen Arms utilizes aerograde processes when button-rifling their barrels in house and undergo inspection to ensure that every barrel that leaves the facility meets the highest quality standards they are known for.
Christensen Arms was founded in Utah in 1995 when it branched off from the aerospace industry to pursue a patent on carbon fiber rifle barrels. Christensen Arms was the first to develop the carbon fiber rifle barrel and opened the door to innovation in the firearms industry and continues to do so with their increasing line of high quality products. The growing popularity of lightweight AR15 rifle builds is only continued by Christensen Arms line of carbon fiber barrels and stocks and will continue to be a driving force behind firearms innovation.
