[QUOTE="lazylabs, post: 508499, member: 6641"] Tension barreled guns have been shot quite a bit in 1K BR. They have had good but somewhat erratic performance. They need more match to match tuning than most other setups. If you consider that a steel barrel and either an AL or carbon tube will have quite a bit different thermal expansion coefficient. If there is not something to conduct the heat from the barrel to the outer tube the smaller dia barrel will just hotter and have less air flow to cool. There are some 22 barrels with solid AL tubes epoxied over them I believe from magnum research. [/QUOTE]
