Why carbon fiber and what are the holes drilled for?Carbon fiber is three times stronger than stainless steel. We drill holes into the Carbon Fiber allowing air to move around the barrel and vent heat quicker without any delamination issues. Using the Carbon Fiber this way keeps the rifling straighter the warmer the barrel gets because it's under tension. This allows us to maintain superior stiffness and strength while keeping the barrel extremely lightweight and accurate.
