[QUOTE="RustyRick, post: 836946, member: 69572"] It seems most loading data is done in a long barrel like at least 24 inches. So obviously a shorter barrel needs a smaller than posted load or else your buying powder and blowing excess out side the barrel. So it's logical a 18.5 inch barrel definitely need lighter loads. Any thoughts on how much lee one should de-rate the book values based on barrel length? [/QUOTE]
