I think it comes down to balance and aesthetics. I’m ok with stainless and black. The ones I have, a 223 and 243, balance and shoot well. If I was going to get a heavier barrel profile, I’d probably go all the way to CTR.

I have a superlite in 7mm rem mag and it has been my favorite gun to hunt with. No matter how much ones spends and ive spent a bunch on others, you couldnt find something better. The gun is one of the most accurate rifles ive ever owned, one of the best triggers and is a damn joy to carry all day.

This EXACTLY sums up my experience with mine. Crazy thing is I have 2 different hand loads that it shoots the same POI with too.
