[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 1908101, member: 13732"] 26" supressed with the 147 was 2990fps, my 23" did 2980, freak barrel I guess it shot 143s @ 3040. I wouldn't gamble on factory ammo for precision. 26" will get generally 40-60fps over the 24". That 23" barrel was a test barrel from a company and it didn't shoot too well, a carbon 26" bartlein is taking its place, will have it back from the Smith next week. I also just ordered a Mesa long range in 6.5 prc to haul around in the truck this summer at the farm, as the new bartlein barreled prc is a bit too nice to bounce around in the back seat for the next 5 months. I'll be breaking in the barrel next week so I'll let you know how they go. [/QUOTE]
