What are the advantages?

I know nothing of them. they weigh less?

Thanks guys for any help

Quoted: They weigh less and cool better than steel barrels of similar profile. They also cost about twice what some other match barrels cost. And, since they are made by one man, and there is pretty high demand, it does take a long time to get one, and some people have been waiting as long as 5 months now for delivery. They are really nice barrels, and if you don't mind just waiting patiently until Mike can get it done for you, you will get a unique product when it finally arrives.

Can I get a 20" Super Match SS 6.8 REM SPC with a M4 barrel extension?

Hell, if I can spend over $400.00 on three MGI buffers... what's a few more hundred on a barrel?  

BTW, the buffers are in my WILL.

Well that makes me feel a little better, I've only been waiting 4 months for mine

Seriously tho, all evidence indicates that my patience will be rewarded. No other barrel will be as stiff and yet weigh as little, or dissipate heat as well. The sil-carbide lining is light years ahead of chrome in durability and accuracy potential. Add all of that on a premium Rock 5R blank with Wylde chamber and you may just have the ultimate AR barrel...

But I still wish I was speaking from personal experience
