[QUOTE="SealT5, post: 1587338, member: 94302"] I’d like to offer my .02 on the whole weight debate. My shooting partner and I have two basically identical rifles. Mine has a Brux #5 barrel finished at 22” and he has a Proof barrel finished at 22”. If I blindfolded you and handed you each rifle by the muzzle brake you could NOT tell me which rifle has the proof. Now, if I handed you to them where you would be holding the rifle directly beneath the magazine well there wouldn’t be any debate. The brux is noticeably nose heavy while the Proof seems to balance perfectly. I’m currently having a Proof chambered in 22 Dasher and intend to try and answer a few questions that come up regularly. Are they as accurate as a SS barrel and do they improve barrel life. [/QUOTE]
