Just a note, the carbon fiber not melting the snow isn't necessarily meaning it's not as hot but may just be because carbon fiber is a worse conductor of heat than the metal. Conductivity of the carbon fiber is probably variable based on the type of resin used, in this case looks like it's more insulative.

Two key factors can have big impacts to CB barrels: 1, overall thermo conductivity of carbon part: include characteristics of resin, filler and types of carbon fiber; 2nd, carbon to steel ratio. The alloy formula of steel also plays a good part in it too.
Also and possible more importantly, the way the barrel is wrapped.

Most other companies like Christiansen Arms Wraps their barrels with Woven CF sheets.

Saving you the science / engineering talk, Proof does it correctly.
One thing I’ve noticed on one of my cf barreled rifles (with the scope sitting almost on the barrel), is that after 20rnds it slings shots. Found out it was swelling from heat expansion and putting pressure on the scope
Accuracy would absolutely suffer in this regard. there's no questions about that. More meaningful would be the group change as it heat up within the first 2-300 rounds.
I’d really like to see how the high carbon low steel barrel in AR platform going to perform in similar test. As Canadian, we might need a new government first.
Then be sure to vote Pierre Poilievre and the conservatives. He has said his government will repeal the liberal AWB and pistol ban (both done by executive fiat). Hopefully, Having learned from what the Liberals did, Pierre will make AR-15s non restricted category and also end the registry (and back doornregistrues like universal backgound checks) for handguns (so that no future Liberal government will have any idea which law abiding Canadian has which firearm).
The thing about carbon fiber is that its awful at heat transfer so if your thermal camera was showing 4-500 degrees on the outside theres a good chance the actual barrel got much hotter. Would be interesting to bore scope it and see the results after a good cleaning.
That looks to me to be a PROOF Research barrel. I have worked for PROOF Research for over 5 years and its really cool to see some crazy things being done with them.
Amazing! Is this THE Kevin Hamilton? I've heard whispers of your consistency and craftsmanship! Love knowing you turn expensive pipes into fantastic barrels! Keep up the good work!
You work for them for over 5 years and you say it “looks to be” a proof barrel? How are you not sure if you have been there so long? They even showed a close up of the cutaway where the cf is fused to the steel in a zig zag pattern. I am sure that would give some indication as each manufacturer does things in a proprietary manner and there is only a handful of cf barrel makers out there.
@@556onlineProof doesnt make the actions and they didnt show the engraving on the chamber end of the barrel so yes I stand by my comment and say that is a proof research barrel. you obviously dont know that much about carbon fiber barrels especially wrapped vs woven carbon fiber. @556online
Interesting and valuable test. The only extra I would have done would have been shooting a few groups for accuracy after the barrel had cooled back down but from your examination afterwards I doubt you'd see a measurable difference. Nice work.
Carbon fiber laminate actualy contracts vs steel that expands as it heats up that is probably why there is no delamination between the two , still its impressive they use such high temperature resin.
Oh wow... The mating area of composite to metal is ribbed to create more surface area or contact area... clever... I always just assumed it would be flat or straight...
It depends on the alloy of steel and titanium used, but theres a good chance the titanium has a low rate of thermal expansion than the steel, plus the titanium would be cooling off more quickly than the steel since it has a significant surface exposed to air.
It's not necessarily that the carbon fiber isn't as hot, it's just that it's not conducting the heat as quickly. Steel is really low in thermal conductivity for metals down in the 15 to 45 W/m-K range depending on the particular alloy. Carbon fiber from what I've been able to find ranges between 6 and .4 W/m-K though due to the nature of composites, that's a lot harder to find good information on.
a couple of disagreements, and I think it's really matter: you shooting in cold weather you don't measure accuracy also, next period of using, how barrel will work after usage like this, how fiber will change in cutaway after some time. thank you so much for your work
Has nothing to do with cold weather. I guess u didn't see the snow melting much faster on the steel parts vs the carbon fiber parts. The carbon clealry dissipates heat faster than the steel, as expected. And yes. Accuracy test woulda been nice. I think they were overly cautious about fumes
@@rkwjunior2298 this is the point, the boundary between metal and carbon expands and gives off heat at different speeds, and this is what can lead to changes in the structure, in the metal-carbon contact it's the main problem of all carbon barrels, balance of cooling in time
@@murate4 Its not a problem, they work great. You can find probelms and flaws in alot of things when pushed to its limits. 1000 rounds one after the other is a super extreme test, 99.9% wont ever see an issue, while hunting or even in competition. So the benefit outweighs the negatives to most Everyone. The benefit is stiffness at a lighter weight, which is more of a real concern in the real world.
Very few rounds will go that long and retain accurately. 223 is one, 308 can sometimes. A 6.5 Creed only has a typical barrel life of 2500-3500 rounds. Most likely closer to 2000 if treated like this.
would be more intersted in real world application ; rapid fire 25-50 rds.....group shot, andother rapid strip, group test etc. Would be really interesting for accurancy tests over 200-300 rds. Appreciate all the work you guys do!
Carbon fiber probable has a lower heat conductivity. so the carbon fiber probably has the same “heat”, but won’t transfer the heat to the ice as quick as the carbon fiber. 6:17
Just a thought regarding stuck casings! I wonder if the heat from action is being transferred to the brass casing, causing some expansion to brass and lodging them in place?!?! Thoughts?
This just confirms the confidence I have in my CF barrel. I run a suppressor on a 20” Proof Research CF 22 Nosler AR15 for hog hunting. Even after several mags the barrel is cool to the touch, the can would deglove your hand. I’ve been very impressed with the accuracy(sub moa) and speeds (3500fps factory 55gr).
Love my 20” Proof CF barrel on my AR-10 .308. Sub MOA with Fed GMM and Berger OTMs. My Thunder Beast Magnus should be available in a couple more months.
It is cool to the touch becasue the carbon fiber is acting like an insulator. It is holding the heat in instead of allowing it to radiat freely. You have effectively put a permanent oven mitt on the barrel. It staying cool to the touch is not a good sign it is a bad sign that heat is not being allowed to conduct away from the bore.
@@buckaroobonsi555So the insulation makes a better oven! And while you don't SEE the pencil barrel drooping, something still has to give. Considering how the gas tube was designed as a failure point to keep the receiver from throwing metal in your face...
Does the zero drift with temperature. Two materials are going to have differing expansion coefficients. That's why we float barrels rather than bed them with wood.
omg this is exactly what I wanted to see. I always wonder what happen with high volume fire. I always stop when the chamber stainless part get hot to touch.
Well taking IR temperature reading from the outside of the carbon fiber jacket will not represent the temperature of the steel inner. Too bad you did not do a bore scope before and after views. I guess you cannot think of everything. Too many FTE and hard bolt lifts for me. I was wondering how thick the inner steel barrels were, and this showed it well.
Interesting experiment. I realize that you couldn’t do accuracy testing throughout the experiment, but I’m thinking you could have done before and after accuracy groupings.
You realize that the bore temperature is way hotter on a carbon fiber barrel because the carbon fiber doesn't transmit heat (it is an insulative material), measuring the exterior temperature of the carbon only validates that the heat is not transferring from the core to the exterior. Take your temperature readings inside the chamber with a laser if you really want to show the biggest flaw of Carbon Fiber Barrels. We have done this test ourselves and you will find huge heat retention in the bore over a standard barrel. If you want your barrel to cool fast and have a light weight rifle then flute your barrels as the weight is nearly identical with Carbon fiber without the flaws.
Forgive me, I’m new to PRS. Most PRS guys would never use a CFW barrel in a competition because of thermo dynamics and POI change. But he said there speed didn’t change. Would the POI change because the barrel harmonics change once the CFW gets warm enough, therefore causing that POI to move. Or is it just that PRS competitors want that extra weight of a big steel barrel?
Steel expands with heat. Thick heavy barrels expand like skinny barrels do, but at a much much slower rate per shot. They can absorb more rounds of heat and expand less per shot. If there are any stresses in the metal, thermals will affect it and make it walk around as it warms up. The more it heats, the more it walks. Thick barrels heat slower.
Still waiting for the TIMBR FRONTIER STOCK for the Savage action. Getting close to a year now, since you told me, it would be ready last. Just check your website for any updates and I didn’t even see the solid walnut stock you’re shooting here.
The internal bore is a lot hotter for sure. Before cutting the barrel in half maybe should have tested for accuracy before and after cleaning, after it had cooled down completely.
Carbon ring in the barrel will cause excessive pressure. Basically, they were getting pressure signs and ignored them.... Chamber is likely cut on the tight side for accuracy. Not that it's necessary, but it seems to be the standard.
should be fine, if you store the gun away from UV lighting. Thats the only long therm killer for almost any kind of plastic. And adding to that, carbon fiber resin is very UV resistant. if you look at carbon parts of older cars that have been maintained and taken care of, they are stil fine.
Barrels are like tires. Change them when they're old and worn out. I get that not everyone shoots a ton (I re-barrel my match gun every year), but some cartridges are only going to have a 750 round life, some are going to be a few thousand. The more powder, the more heat, the lower the life. Obviously you can get more if it's a shoot 3 and cool life vs shoot 10-15+ 5 or more times in a row life.
