[QUOTE="Canhunter35, post: 1355144, member: 101677"] I’m trying to wrap my head around carbon fibre barrels. I think they look awesome and may offer cooling properties along with weight reduction. What I’m wondering is, What’s stiffer: A 4lb carbon fibre barrel? Or a 4lb steel barrel? I’m hoping some gunsmiths with experience can shed light on the benefits. I don’t really care about cooling, I don’t fire that fast and furious. I like the looks but I’m wondering if they’re worth the cost? Or if a steel and carbon fibre barrels of the same weight compare in stiffness and accuracy? [/QUOTE]
