[QUOTE="Gord0, post: 1703466, member: 99696"] I was going to make a big long write-up, but jpndave did it for me! I don't care who's carbon wrap barrel you are using they don't transfer heat as well as plain steel because of the epoxy matrix. Even if you were to use the fancy silver heatsink epoxy that costs THOUSANDS an ounce! You won't get heat related poi shifts with carbon barrels because the carbon wrap doesn't heat up as much as steel because it can't transfer heat as well, and it is thermally stable. [/QUOTE]
