[QUOTE="3006savage, post: 610122, member: 12069"] You should only loose around 25FPS per inch with a 06 on average. I have gotten great velocities with RL17 and a 22 inch barrel. Keep in mind the volume a 30 calibler bore takes up in a 22 inche long barrel. Now the 06 case is only going to displace approx 60 grains H2O so the pressure should be falling off quite a bit by the time the bullet reaches the muzzle. With a 25 -06 I would probably be a different story because the bore is so much smaller. A 35 Whelen might actually be running a vaccum by the time the bullet reaches the muzzle:D. [/QUOTE]
