[QUOTE="snox801, post: 2333869, member: 54383"] So for what your looking for keep in mind that the larger the bullet diameter on any given case allows for a short barrel to get same speed. If you have a .223 case and you neck up to a 6mm you can get the same speed as the .223 with shorter barrel for same weight bullet. That being said I would move straight to a .30 cal of some kind. You have the great bc without having an incredibly long bullet. I love my customs and that part of the fun but you have many choices of very good .300 win mag in factory rifles you could choose from then take the saved money and send it out for custom loaded ammo. I’d say around 22-24” would be ideal with a can. I have some longer and shorter but like you said they get looooong with cans on them [/QUOTE]
