[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1976517, member: 104363"] The cost for CF barrels should probably stay in that $700 range unless there is a major breakthrough in machining the blanks and wrapping the fiber and curing, finish machining etc. That becomes the niche market for those with money and those who just can't afford the leap. For those that pack in, endure high climbs, it makes sense to me to plunk down the cash for a rifle system primarily for less weight. Mainstream? Not yet. [/QUOTE]
