Nice, I like the barrel cage. Thanks so much for the reply.

What did you do about durability? I just posted a thread about the flimsy barrel and my on going progression to get it rigid. I added a carbon fiber barrel sleeve, then a carbon fiber shroud sleeve, now I fashioned a clamp that finally solved the issue.

Thank you for your input by the way. You were the only one who read the post and answered accordingly......my complaint wasn't tune related it was barrel flex, can't tune that out.

That's why I counter drilled the barrel block so the cf would slide in. I drilled 1/2 way so I can put retention on the shroud and tension on the CF shroud cover. I saw the flex you mentioned and made a new one......thankfully I bought a 4 pack. It took three tries to get what I wanted. Even...

It's the flex I was concerned with. I can tune to most any projectile but you can't tune out flimsy.

I'm aware of tuning and it's effect. As I was explaining in the thread I was concerned with the amount of flex no amount of tuning will create a stiffer barrel. I could move the barrel a good bit with a finger and thumb. I cured that issue and seem to have helped harmonics to boot. I would hate...

Would you purchase me one? Another gun would come st an expense. I just made the one I already have better with scraps I had in a bin.

I may be able to purchase a different gun, however at what expense? I am very particular on the torque on barrel. The issue was with flex. I could flex the barrel a good bit with a finger and thumb. My proof of concept, crude, was somewhat effective. I fashioned version two (photo below) with...

To clarify, I'm by no means a bench rest shooter. I am an avid hunter who big game hunts (deer, hogs) pest hunts and small game. I'm setting this Impact M3 500mm barrel up for Cyote, pigs, squirrels. I hunts deer and hog with a Airforce Texan in 9mm with a 170gr hollowpoint. I said that to...

Photos of barrel stiffener

I finally have a barrel i feel will be stiff enough to insure no poi change. I will now start testing group size. FIRST I used a carbon fiber barrel liner which I epoxy afixxed. Secondly I measured and purchased a barrel shroud carbon fiber liner (14mm/16mm) which i also epoxy glued in place...
