B14R carbon vs steel barrel

[Afischer1289]

Has anyone done a side by side comparison of the the two? Is one inherently more accurate than the other.

Mine do about the same. Both very good shooters.

I don't have carbon to compare but, the steel barrel does .4" with SK+, .3/ SK RM, and .2/ Center X. The factory trigger is about 2 1/2 lbs and very crisp but, needs to be replaced IMHO. I will shoot it a bit yet. [still working on the first 500 rds.]

Wound up keeping the steel bbl version. Put a TT diamond in it, dropped it in a whiskey 3 and topped it with a gen 2 razor. About as close to my match rifle as i can get.

I don't know if the steel is more accurate than the carbon, but I know that if you plan to shoot PRS style .22 matches, less barrel weight is not what you want.
