Only a fool would buy an all steel barrel.
Over...
From someone who has shot benchrest for over 30 years, I have never seen a carbon wrapped barrel used on a benchrest gun of any kind. And I'm talking competition from 50 yards to 1000 yards.

And I rarely see 24 pound bench rest guns used for elk and mule deer hunting. Must be some reason for this
