[QUOTE="Gamesniper19, post: 1588859, member: 95013"] I have no experience with the Hells Canyon CF barrel so I cannot compare directly - the additional mirage in a Proof CF barrel comes from engineering the of movement of heat more efficiently and quickly from the core. Again, great for barrel life but it does have a noticeable increased mirage over a steel barrel, and significantly more in an AR platform. I have no issue running a CF barrel on my bolt guns. Especially hunting platforms. My AR's are being switched back to steel as they shoot out. The weight savings in an 18 or 20 inch barrel within a 10 - 12lb AR platform is not a priority for me to offset the cost differences. [/QUOTE]
