[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1386991, member: 4191"] The only reason I'd ever consider a carbon wrapped barrel is for weight reduction. I'd have to see something more believable than pixie dust before I'd give any credibility to benefits of greater rates of heat transfer. The issue should be as simple to settle as the R-value of the carbon, in the radial direction, is less than the R-value of the steel barrel. If the explanation needs to be much more complicated than that, then it's quickly leading to hocus pocus. [/QUOTE]
