56% stiffer for the WEIGHT

38% lighter for the same FREQUENCY
This is a large diameter, multi-hole hyper rigid barrel that have virtually no barrel whip and are harmonically dead.
This is an aftermarket solution that creates a multi-hole ("I-Beam") Structure that both reinforces the main chamber and adds up to 500% more surface area for cooling (depending on selected add-ons).
Structured Barrels take advantage of a physics principle called axial compression enabling operators to shoot sub 3/8 MOA across a wide variety of calibers, munitions, and grain weights with little to no load development, which results in less time and money spent at the range.
Structured Barrels also self-cool from the negative pressure generated by the bullet passing through the muzzle that pulls cool air through breather ports up its neck, cooling it from the inside. To further increases performance, tacomHQ optionally cuts a dense fin pattern in varying lengths, directions, and pitches with a sandblast finish to add more surface area and deaden surface translated harmonics, making it ideal for PRS, light, and heavy machine guns.
Structured Barrels run cooler so their life is significantly prolonged. By better controlling critical thermodynamic transition points, end users see remarkably less throat erosion, fire cracking, and gas jetting compared to a non-Structured Barrel.
