[QUOTE="degreen, post: 1258872, member: 88909"] I was just thinking of doing a long range target rifle in 243 Winchester, and I am wondering if there is a rule of thumb between bore size and barrel length. What I am asking is can the barrel of a rifle chambered in 243 be longer than a rifle chambered in say .308 due to bore diameter. I am thinking smaller bore = less volume with same case capacity = longer barrel. [/QUOTE]
