[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 559574, member: 1521"] I don't know what data you're referring to, but I suspect you misunderstood it. The bullets would not drop off in VELOCITY, but instead would drop off in VELOCITY GAIN. That is, beyond a certain point velocity gain rate decreases with increments of increased barrel lengths. But velocity IS still going up. You want to have enough barrel that muzzle pressures are not a problem, and yet there is little gain in going more than needed for good accuracy. [/QUOTE]
