[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1211551, member: 1521"] For a 'target' gun you need to think past velocity and consider muzzle pressures, which affect bullet release. Muzzle pressure could also affect the integrity& effectiveness of your 'can'(another counter variable to target shooting). High muzzle pressure conditions can lead to secondary peak pressures that go off the charts. There are reasons all guns don't have ~22" barrels, and it isn't just velocity. For target shooting, 260AI capacity, ~28" barrel. Not for velocity, but for consistent load performance and clean bullet release. Don't let the trained monkey shooting with LR pistols or tactical assault guns send you down the wrong path. In accuracy, they're nowhere approaching a true LR rifle. [/QUOTE]
