[QUOTE="TheDeicide, post: 1873501, member: 40022"] I have read a ton of posts and all I've learned is shorter = faster and longer = slower. Can anyone point me at some good articles or videos on the subject. I am tempted to buy QuickLoad but I don't really wanna spend $150 on it. Edit: Sorry I wasn't as clear as I should have been. A shorter barrel is better with faster powder and a longer barrel is better with a slower powder. I also picked up that the smaller caliber in the same barrel (30-06 vs 6.5-06) is the smaller bore builds pressure faster because it is more restricted so it would run a slower burn rate than the larger diameter bore. All other things being equal. [/QUOTE]
