[QUOTE="jrock, post: 2361071, member: 78569"] I had a 6.5 SAUM @ 28" and I cut to 24" when I got a suppressor. Surprisingly, I had almost no velocity loss. Had a friend with a 24" 6.5 PRC and he cut it down to 22" and lost about a 25 to 30 fps.. I know some gun companies say go even shorter. For me, carrying a 26" barrel with 2" brake is reasonably long. Subtract 7" for a suppressor and its down to 21". I'm going to leave my barrels at 24" for a few years to see how they ride. [/QUOTE]
