Bartlein carbon fiber wrapped

[gusd]

I got to take a look at a couple of their new carbon wrapped barrels a couple weeks ago. Really sharp looking they come in a couple different color options.
Was on their web site and noticed they actually have a few in stock. Sure wish I was ready to build a new rifle these things look awesome!

They do look nice. I was surprised how heavy they are compared to similar proof barrel

They have a lot more shank, it looks like.
They must be thinking about having more length options with same barrel? Good if you shorten it

Where did you find the weight? I looked all over their website but couldn't find it.

I haven't seen a weight specs on the Bartlein Carbon barrels. Did you see them posted somewhere?

Bartlein Carbon Wrapped Barrels

I just saw a facebook post by GA Precision about Bartlein offering carbon wrapped barrels. This should be very interesting....... Anyone else see this?

I know some of the barrel makers aren't turning their blanks down below a #4 contour.
They're leaving the last few inches at .900ish, then adding more weight with CF wrapping.
Doesn't really make much sense

I've had one in 22" 257 cal 7 twist on order for my new 25SST now for the last month and a half through my smith. Waiting for the anTi to finally drop to get the build started!

Interesting.
Does anyone know if they are doing this "in house"???? Or, who is doing it for them.
The cooling properties Proof has are proprietary because of their resin and the way they are "woven" not wrapped, and it is a highly guarded resin matrix because they use it in their aerospace program as well.
Does anyone have details???

That's just the snake oil that Proof feeds to the masses.

Proof is just mass producing ABS barrels. Nothing special about any carbon fiber barrels.
