[QUOTE="nmbarta, post: 2026826, member: 78438"] I know this has been discussed, but I can't find what I want. Short action, 18" barrel, 6.8 or 7mm 160+ bullet @ 2900+ fps. I do not care about barrel life or powder efficiency at all, my suppressor is rated for full auto, so I'm not too concerned about the fire ball going into it. Just thinking about a hammer bullet, with the right powder and cartridge. The 277 fury with the steel base had my attention, but I don't see any brass for that. I'm not sure this can be done? Maybe a better question would be, What is the best possible ballistic performance from a short action 18" barrel? Ballistic performance being the only concern? [/QUOTE]
