Carbon Fiber Remage barrels

Does something lead you to believe that using a carbon blank to make a remage will make it any different than a shouldered carbon barrel or a steel remage?
I have just heard differing pro's and con's about carbon barrels, some being more accurate, some not holding up well. I am interested in a thick light barrel and just want to see if anybody has tried one brand or another that sells a remage configuration.
Carbon 6 sells remage CF. Have heard good things about that brand, never used them. I would buy one if that was my only choice.
Any barrel nut barrel will perform pretty well like a shouldered barrel. Its at the extreme that a shouldered barrel will outform.
Most of the bad stuff I hear was from early gen CF when it was a learning process. Lots of stuff I hear is speculation about, blah blah blah. The process is pretty mature now.
One brand I do hear most complaints is Christiansen Arms. Not sure why.
CF gives you more stiffness for the weight. You can get the same results for the first three shots out of a similar weight pencil barrel. My Proof CF don't walk on me.
I only buy them for hunting rifles, otherwise I go steel.
