[QUOTE="RB II, post: 2794568, member: 124418"] That is exactly my point. Unknown how this damage may affect the life of the barrel in the long run. I bought it for a hunting rifle to likely last many many years but also be exposed to potentially harsh conditions. If it was CM vs CF, I know how to identify and maintain for long life, but under the carbon fiber no way to know how the weather has affected the barrel beneath. And delam would render the barrel even more worthless than it is now. If I had damaged the barrel through my own negligence, I would just suck it up, jerry rig it and slab some epoxy on it and call it good, like many have suggested.......or wrap it around a tree, but that would be my choice. This whole deal was not my choice to deal with mess that I paid fair market value for. [/QUOTE]
