Out of curiosity what does that bottom carbon barrel weigh?
Those are Bartlein SS Barrels, not Proof Research carbon ones ;-)
Raw, as they come, unchambered & approx 1" longer weights.
26" #2B 6.5 1.655kg Bartlein
26" #2B 308 1.595kg Bartlein
28" #3 .284 1.845kg Bartlein
26" SL .308 1.375kg Proof Research Carbon wrapped
28" S .338 1.670kg Proof Research Carbon wrapped
The Carbons are significantly lighter :)
Hey Greg any idea on the price of a proof research barrel? feel free to PM me if you want
How much for a deviant?
Any bartleins left?
PM if you want.
I know proof has been around a hell of a lot longer than Hardy carbon barrels, so what are the major differences between the two?
Looking at a 6.5 creedmoor running the 143gr eldx precision hunter ammo. Hardy have apparently had a spec reamer designed specifically for that ammo.
Proof Research are a cut barrel, like Kreiger, Rock Creek, Bartlein etc not a button barrel.
The Carbon Fibre is applied a completely different way.
All the Proof Reserach barrels I have used so far have shot incredibly well.
More goodies this morning :)
