[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1688123, member: 92702"] Remember, barrels are a "consumable" Carbon barrels have some advantages, stiffness vs weight being the big one. You can build a rifle that shoots like a heavy barrel gun and save a pound. You can also shoot them a few more times before barrel heat causes mirage in the scope. They are not better or worse than a steel barrel of the same size and quality. They look cool. They are nearly twice the price for the same quality. If it seems worth it, buy one. I finally did.
