[QUOTE="ross spagrud, post: 28836, member: 171"] There are numerous grades of Titanium on the market and the stronger ones are more than suitable for any hi pressure firearm applications such as barrels or actions. In barrel applications the problem has always been the difficulty in getting a proper hole drilled and reamed. The reject rate combined with the extreme cost of the material makes it a poor choice. Also, the titanium barrels that were made did not last as long as steel ones (accuracy). I have been personally involved with the construction of Titanium: -Actions -Muzzle brakes -Rifle silencers and have found it to be an excellent material for these applications. [/QUOTE]
