[QUOTE="bookworm, post: 285483, member: 13840"] Thanks AJ. It's looking like I need to choose whether to stay with H-1000 and keep the 26" barrel or go shorter and get a different powder (maybe H4350 as you suggest). The idea of shortening my barrel was to make it a bit more packable while hunting but also I've read that it will stiffen the barrel a bit and could improve accuracy. I know the downside is loss of some velocity, but I thought it may be worth it to gain some precision. It's a factory barrel. [/QUOTE]
