[QUOTE="Deleted member 103481, post: 1888701"] The only place I think they save weight anymore is if you need a lighter longer barrel and need a shoulder big enough for a 5/8 suppressor. I guess if you need a 26” barrel with a .725 shoulder and need it to be under the weight of a #6 steel the carbon would save you a pound. At this point other than looking cool I’m not sure why I would own another. Open to it but don’t see the niche much anymore. I’d imagine if these do really wick heat like Bartlein is claiming it going to suck to shoot more than a few rounds from a big cartridge due to mirage. where do you see them being the most valuable? I’m sure I’m looking through the bias of what I personally want to build in the future and not all the options [/QUOTE]
