[QUOTE="Bruce Treloar, post: 1982566, member: 104002"] Nice to see someone knows something about CF lay ups. The direction of the fibers would also be important, unidirectional down the length of the barrel seems the best option. Removing all the excess resin would be another must do. Just to call it CF wrapped is not enough information for me. One only has to look at some of the resin rich composite stocks in the market to know barrel wraps will be the same. I have toyed with the idea of doing a CF barrel for years but am concerned about the different expansion of the two materials. [/QUOTE]
