[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1377264, member: 54178"] The one very good thing about Proof Research barrels aside form being significantly lighter than all steel barrels is their ability to keep a good group even when heated up after a long string of shots. This is partly due to the stiffness imparted by the CF wrap and partly due to the fact that CF wrapped barrels cool much faster than all steel barrels. So if you are thinking of a hot cartridge like the 6.5 Weatherby or .300 Ultra Mag you should be thinking of a CF wrapped barrel. For me that means only a Proof Research barrel because of their proprietary diagonally, overlapping wrapped CF fibers that leave the barrel with a perfect uniformity. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
