carbon fibre barrels

6 of one, ½ dozen of the other? I'm interested in buying my first carbin fiber wrapped barrel. Are they pretty much equal or does one stand above the rest, or should I look elswhere? I'm thinking Savage or Remage prefit, 1:8 6 Creed, 18" Sendero, threaded for my suppressor.

I’m trying to wrap my head around carbon fibre barrels. I think they look awesome and may offer cooling properties along with weight reduction. What I’m wondering is, What’s stiffer: A 4lb carbon fibre barrel? Or a 4lb steel barrel? I’m hoping some gunsmiths with experience can shed light on...
