[QUOTE="aushunter1, post: 2032678, member: 57533"] Well from my understanding as a general rule you usually lose around 50fps per inch of barrel cut so if your losing 8 inches your looking at a possible 400fps drop which is a lot. Doesnt mean 40gr's wont work because lets say you were getting around 4000fps out of a 40gr load you will then be getting 3600fps, thats still moving! Still as we all know speed does not always determine a accurate load so again with the short barrel how is that going to affect accuracy?? Obviuosly would need tobe re crowned well. As you get into the longer & heavier proj's then things change but its really only by trial & error you will find out. [/QUOTE]
