[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 2070963, member: 13732"] BR shooters will cut new crowns every 2-300 rounds, set back chambers a half inch 1-2 times on a 32" barrel if it's a shooter. Can you do any of these functions with the short shank/muzzle on a carbon barrel? No. This alone is enough reason to steer a BR or F shooter away from CF. Oh and weight? Aren't this rifles in that's 20-40# range? Why would they use the lightest composite for contour on an intended heavy gun? Let's be real. If they had an option of a 12# barrel that shoots in the 2s, and a 4# CF that shoots in the 2s, they're gonna choose the 12# Barrel every day. [/QUOTE]
