[QUOTE="Guest, post: 26699"] I am hoping the longer barrel of the Savage (26") will help boost the ballistics of the 7mm Remington. I read I can expect an increase of up to 50 fps per inch of barrel on a 7mm. That would be great. Some reloading manuals list 160's @ 3100 fps with a 24" barrel. I would be happy to reach 3100 fps w/ my 26" tube. Hope the rifle shows soon, this nice weather has got me itching to do some shooting! Has anybody tested for speed a 24 inch versus a 26 inch barrel in a 7mm Magnum? What do you think would the results would be? I like the fact that the Savage 112BVSS has a fluted barrel, so it don't overheat as fast. I don't want to cook the barrel on this baby! [/QUOTE]
