[QUOTE="vancewalker007, post: 2371316, member: 66917"] I would think a 22in barrel would be safe to run a 156 somewhere in the 2900s with RL26, which still provides great ballistics. Using 5800ft alt and 40 deg F still puts that 156 cruising along at +1900fps at a 1000 yards. This velocity will allow that bullet to work great even at that extreme distance. So, at regular hunting distances ie. 200-600 yards that bullet has some juice. It has been a reliable killer out of my PRC. [/QUOTE]
