[QUOTE="RustyRick, post: 837099, member: 69572"] Thinking - I can see the accuracy being the same for the short barrel as well as the long one with the same powder and load. But my logic says that a bunch of un-necessary powder is burning out side the muzzle. To use 24 inch data in an 18.5 inch barrel seems illogical. But I guess I'll shed some light on it personally as I work up some roll-yer-own recipes for this 6.5 that was handed to me. I'm going to try my first batch with 5 groups of 3 shots with 140 gr. Hornady and 4831, 4350, & H380. [/QUOTE]
