The barrel has a 1/2 inch guarantee on it.

The only real thing I have been concerned with is the weight and balance.

On my zombie gun the barrel is 3 pounds. It's HEAVY AF!!!

This new barrel though will shave off a lot of weight. I will go from 48oz barrel to a 30oz barrel. An 18oz weight savings I hope is good enough.

I was torn between the Ultra light weight and the light weight.

The ultra light weight is 20oz. The one I got is 30oz.

From what I read online if the barrel is TOO light it can cause accuracy issues. Admittedly it would be better handling but the one I got was sort of in the middle. Not really a bench barrel but still lighter than what I have.
