[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1666997, member: 96226"] The 16" barrel is going to put you into a yucky zone with some 73-77gr bullets. They'll be stablized but "marginally stable" so you'll lose a lot of BC. I kind of doubt that you're worried about BC from a 16.5" pipe anyway though so like my previous post says, should be just fine up to 77gn. Note that 70's will be perfect from that barrel as a matter of how fast you can push them vs. BC vs. stability. [/QUOTE]
