[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 966765"] I couldn't come up with anything more clever than Mudrunner2005:) It's all a compromise. Bench rest guys go short, fat, straight contour, rail guns can be very short barreled. High powder capacity chambering guys go long to give time for burn and expansion. I have a 6mmAR 20" and an 6.5Grendel 18". I do not have the Grendel set up just now. If it were me, I'd have the existing barrel shortened and fluted. Or Keep it for varmints and get the AR740 or M4 profile fluted. My 18" is not fluted. Wanna trade? [/QUOTE]
