    Thinking stainless steel or carbon?

    I’m looking at the carbon ones, I’ve been through some old chats on here and seems good, who would be best to talk to? Any members sell them that you know of?

    My carbon one was extremely accurate. If you haven’t called Cam at alpine precision he’s the one to talk to
