[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 652625, member: 48043"] Here in the states 16"+ for rifles 18" for shotguns. I can't get over 3K with my 270's with a 130 in a 22" tube, so a 7-08 might be a better choice with a short barrel, as the short action would let you leave another inch or two of barrel on the rifle. I had a 7-08 with a 20" tube, and it went 2800 fps with a 140 and h414, and 3K even with a 120 and rl15. [/QUOTE]
