Starting at the face of the receiver, the threaded portion is 0.441, the thickness of the barrel extension collar is 0.131, and the section of barrel from the barrel extension shoulder to the muzzle-threads shoulder is 10.755.
So 0.441 + 0.131 + 10.755 = 11.327. To be on the safe side, let’s call it 11.3.
So if you want a handguard to butt up to the muzzle threads without extending beyond, your handguard can’t be longer than 11.3 measured from the face of the receiver. But I don’t know how the various companies measure their handguard length, so that’s an open question.
LaRue Tactical makes an 11", and it's currently on sale from $299 to $209 as of 20170306. Don't know how they measure it, however.:: 6.5 GRENDEL Deer and Targets :: 6mmARC Targets and Varmints and Deer :: 22 ARC Varmints and Targets

I also recently assembled a LaRue stealth 2.0 I think it's a 10.5" rail and a 12" 300BO, very nice and I'd prefer that rail for this build. But, LaRue isn't currently offering them to the public.
I'll throw up some pictures for length references, currently traveling so it may be a couple days.

BTW here is a pic of a 10.75 URX 3.1 cut to about 10.25 ona 11.5 Lilja (really 11 inches). Confusing, I know but it is what it is and I'm sure it would be great on a 12 inch Faxon:

So, if I'm viewing it correctly (and it depends on the camera angle), they measure their handguard total length starting at the face of the receiver?:: 6.5 GRENDEL Deer and Targets :: 6mmARC Targets and Varmints and Deer :: 22 ARC Varmints and Targets
