[QUOTE="dirtboy, post: 419094, member: 25918"] When I was checking out these carbon barrels I steered toward Christensen arms for a few reasons. The turn around time they told me was 2-3 months. I got my gun in 2.5 month. Thier website looks like it was done professionally and they have a lot of customor results on their that will take you the better part of a day to go threw. From alot of custom rifle builders I seen, not to many of them have thier rifle on this level of production. So that tell me they have a solid customor base. They have videos of the gun in action. Accuracy, If you let your steel barrel cool down inbetween shots I guess accuracy wouldn't be affected. As far as heat goes. They make pretty big deal of carbon letting go of it a lot faster. I wouldn't put that kind of info out there if it wasn't true, then again I could be wrong, I never put a thermonotor in the barrel to see if it is acting as a insulator or not. I do know when I take some shots I dont say hey that barrels hot. They also advertise they get about 20% more barrel life out of the barrel. Your doind that by holding heat in. As far just on small caibers, They make a bull barrel and a sportor barrel. I have a 30-378 I would call that a mild caliber. I know they do a lot of 300 and 338 ultra, I've seen 375 ultras, 416 and they even have a carbon wrapped 50 cal for sale.
