[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 114266, member: 8843"] [b]300WSM in a 20\" barrel ??[/b] I'm sitting here with a Short action Rem and a realy nice light weight stock contiplating what caliber it needs to be. I was wondering what sort of velocity could be expected from a 300 WSM out of a 20" barrel with say 180gr bullets. Also how severe would the muzsel blast be on an animal of this sort. I'm thinking about a short light weight deer/elk gun for shooting out to 400yds I've seen a Ruger with 16" barrel and liked the way it handled but not to sure about 16" of barrel with that much powder. Anybody out their shoot a shorter barreled 300WSM [/QUOTE]
