[QUOTE="SouthTXBowhunter, post: 1259889, member: 13266"] I'm interested in building a compact and lightweight hunting rifle in 6.5mm that'll push 140s fast. It'll be suppressed and I'd like to use a 22" bbl or, at longest, a 24" bbl. I'm interested in the 26 Nosler and the 6.5 SAUM 4s but I can't find any info on the effect (especially on the 26 Nosler) about cutting the barrel shorter. I realize that I'll loose some velocity but I'm wondering how much and whether there are any other pitfalls to going a little shorter than typical lengths, with these 2 calibers? Has anyone gone shorter with either of these calibers? [/QUOTE]
