[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1976725, member: 64108"] The Savage Proof barrels are also chambered by Proof. As far as weight savings over a steel barrel it has to be a longer, heavier contour steel barrel before you see the benefit. A # 3 (.670" heavy sporter)fluted 26" steel I think is ~3lbs , a 26" Proof sendero is 3lb 5oz. CF is lighter than a similar contour steel barrel [/QUOTE]
