[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1777231, member: 30902"] That's going to vary with the powder you use. Faster burning powders will lose less, slower burning powders will lose more velocity when comparing longer barrels like the 28" as you start dropping back to 20". The reason we can achieve such high velocities with slow burning powders is that more of it is burning in the barrel as compared to faster burning powders where more is burnt in the chamber an first six inches of barrel.
