[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 81580, member: 1622"] All, Thanks for your answers -seems to be a universal 'thumbs-up' at the moment. What sort of vel increase are you seeing? I'm wondering (actually, hoping for reasons of weight saving) if (in 308) a 22" 5R might roughly equate to a 24" conventional. Thoughts? Anyone have negative thoughts / experiences with 5R? Scirocco, My only experience with Border is the barrel on my AW. Conventional cut rifled, 0.3MOA or better including 3 shots from cold bore (I'm the limiting factor!). I've only heard good things about them. [/QUOTE]
