Overview

Faxon's FF65GBCGCNITRIDE is a complete M16-pattern carrier group built around the Type 2 .136 bolt face used by 6.5 Grendel-family cartridges. Faxon lists it for 6.5 Grendel, 6mm ARC, .22 ARC, and .338 ARC. The 9310 steel bolt is magnetic-particle inspected, the carrier is 8620 steel, and the assembly receives a salt-bath nitride finish.

This is the complete BCG option for the catalog's .338 ARC and 6mm ARC barrel paths. It is distinct from Faxon's FF65GBCNITRIDE bolt-head-only product, which still needs a compatible carrier.

Key Features

  • Complete carrier group with bolt, carrier, gas key, cam pin, firing pin, and retaining pin
  • Type 2 .136 bolt face for Grendel/ARC-family cartridges
  • 9310 steel MPI-tested bolt and 8620 steel carrier
  • Salt-bath nitride finish inside and out
  • Full-auto-compatible M16 carrier profile
  • Made in USA

Pros

  • +Exact complete-BCG path for Faxon .338 ARC barrels
  • +Also supports the catalog's 6mm ARC barrel
  • +Avoids mistaking a bolt head for a complete carrier group

Cons

  • Wrong bolt face for 5.56, .223, and .300 Blackout barrels
  • Headspace should be verified with the assembled barrel and bolt
