[QUOTE="B23, post: 439394, member: 13222"] I've looked into a ABS/Bettin carbon wrapped systems and though, IMHO, they offer a better product than the other carbon wrapped barrels the down side is you won't get as much of a weight savings. Mr. Bailey is correct, a fluted, usuable sized contour barrel won't weigh that much more than a ABS wrapped barrel. Some of the other companies that do carbon wrapped barrels turn the barrel down much thinner. I guess it's debatable on how thin is still ok but i'll take my chances with the heavier ABS or Bettin wrapped barrels over the others. [/QUOTE]
