[QUOTE="Rhovee, post: 1980244, member: 101820"] They are not stiffer for weight when compared to steel. Trust me on this, if they had any accuracy, stiffness, barrel dampening effects, cooling effects, longer barrel life, people would be using them and winning in matches. I have not seen any top contenders in short range BR, long range BR, PRS, or any shooting competitions winning with CF barrels. A #4 fluted barrel weights the same as a proof sendero and has very close stiffness when Alex tested them for deflection. Biggest benefit is using larger breaks [/QUOTE]
