My mind has to ask the question, and that's if the light barrels shoot as well as the heavy barrels then why have Snipers long toted rigs with heavy tubes on them...?
Thoughts anyone why these guys would carry the weight when they don't need it?
Thx

the original m40 was something like 11 lbs, I think they're pushing 20 lbs now (m40a5 is current?) I recall reading an article that they really are getting too heavy, but who's gonna complain and who's gonna do anything about it?
FWIW, I love shooting my heavy barrel guns (dislike carrying them). Whether it's the barrels, or just the fact that a heavy gun is more stable, or even that the stocks are designed to sit in sandbags better, I definitely can get more consistent tiny groups out of them than my huntin' guns.
