Is there something very wrong with my Faxon barrel?

Go fast,

Yes, that much jump for a short/light factory round is understandable.

Conventional wisdom for semi-auto ammo is to have at least the diameter of the bullet in shank length seating to prevent the bullet from shifting prior to being fired. So, at least 6.5mm of shank length in contact with the neck for this calibre. For the 95VMax this means the cartridge ends up short, and the jump long.

That said, 3-4 MOA is unusual even for a cheap barrel. Nowadays, if you are not shooting under MOA with a well-rested AR then you are not doing your time, effort, and money justice. Something is wrong with your setup.
