[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 978092, member: 12995"] Not according to true specs. Barrel lenth stops when the tape hits the bolt face...Because at that point the entire cartridge will be inside the barrel, and not half of it, like if you were measuring from the lug, forward. So to answer the OP's question. Close your bolt (empty rifle), and run a cleaning rod down it. Mark it, then measure the cleaning rod. Then you'll have your true barrel length. [/QUOTE]
