7 PRC CARBON BARREL??

[Danieltremblay]

What’s the most accurate, best made carbon barrel for an ultra lite rife build paired with the mdt hnt 26 stock?

Stainless barrel of the appropriate contour will be lighter.

Any suggestions on a specific barrel?

This is a bit of a loaded question, but I will share my opinion. If you are truly looking for ultralight go 416R stainless steel light contour fluted barrel. Bartlein, Brux, Benchmark would be my picks. Carbon CAN be less weight, but only of similar contour barrels. If Carbon is your fancy because they "look good" and you can't stand the look of skinny pencil barrels, Bartlein carbon would be my choice. According to the Smith I use, Bartlein has the LEAST amount of carbon barrels that dont "shoot". However they will be on the heavy side of carbon barrels.
