Why so Stranglove? [I've always thought carbon would be a good idea for a long gun - 120cm plus, where it should offer a significant weight/inertia advantage (esp. out of the water). On the other hand more mass would reduce recoil.]
Yes Mr. X less recoil was what I had in mind, longer gun , longer shots on smaller guns may be the recoil is less of a factor since the shoots are closer but you guys are better on giving advice them me (I think). But just like you one can get avantages with both carbon or Aluminum and I not recoment one or the other but what I had in mind when I've picked the HF is perhaps because of the shape of the barrel here is a longer gun that is easy to move arround !
