Ronin Posted April 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 No Neil they are ok to work with but require delicate handling on the carbon wrap I’ve fitted a few - they are accurate enough but I wouldn’t encourage one for extensive range use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 Aesthetically pleasing more than anything then.. Cost wise how much more does it add to the price of the barrel blank..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted April 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 They are listed at 700 usd over there - possibly similar here along the lines of other wrapped barrels (Hardy, Proof etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 And they do different colours... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 The normal barrels blanks are expensive enough 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
