It’s a very thin Stainless Steel Barrel wrapped in Carbon Fiber. They are not ideal for competition save for when weight is a big deal. Any kind of Bench or Prone shooting they offer no advantage.. and in some ways they have some disadvantages. They don’t handle heat or warping very well. Think of the Thinest, little pencil barrel you’ve ever seen. These are even thinner!

Here is a picture of of the steel underneath. These are great hunting barrels.. maybe for a Biathlon rifle…. But for competition…, not so much.
