Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles X-caliber CF or SS AR barrel

X-caliber is running their cinco de mayo sale for 20% off all barrels. I have been considering putting a new barrel in my AR and was considering the carbon fiber to try something different. Does anyone have any experience with their carbon fiber barrel?

I run their stainless prefits on a couple of bolt guns and have had good results. I am not opposed to going stainless fluted either, so any input in those would be great too.

Any info is much appreciated!

I don't see a lot of benefits to using a CF barrel on an AR. I have a couple of prefits from X-Caliber, and I wouldn't hesitate to try a CF barrel.

i'm pretty far off the "carbon barrel" train these days

a lot of similar weight barrels sh

on a side: button rifle barrels can shoot, and shoot well.

but i'd rather a good cut rifle barrel with a good chamber that weighs what i need it to weigh and profile it as such, then dick around with wrapping a button barrel with carbon for the same money/weight.
