[QUOTE="Ripper, post: 412440, member: 25842"] I have a lot to learn here. It seems a 28" barrel is real long for a .308? The length for the Army M24 and M40 (the same I believe) are is 26" or so? With that in mind how am I going to achieve the max FPS out of the break? With accuracy and muzzle velocity in mind what should I be looking at for barrel length? Ok so 168 Gn is out of the question now. I was always under the assumption that 168 was premier. I guess I called Dave Kiff like you said; but i'm not sure exactly what I am going to be going so I told him I would email him what I needed later on. He's working on some R700 bolt replacements that have the 3 point safety shroud I want installed which is a plus. I have to go off of reccommendation since I don't even know what I need. I will check out that website and ask a few question's. But I will say I have a lot of help here and I appreciate it much What type of ring's are on this rifle below that has this rail on top of it? And what is it for? [URL="http://img830.imageshack.us/i/800pxm40a31.jpg/"][IMG]http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/4894/800pxm40a31.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Many thanks gentlemen! Cheers, RiP [/QUOTE]
