[QUOTE="sj-pratt, post: 759769, member: 6953"] Jim, I was talking with a guy that is doing work with military armory and they were testing barrel lengths and and the effect on accuracy at different distances. He was full of intersting information but to make a long story short he stated at 1000 yards the guns with 26" barrels worked best and if you choose to shortened the barrels they concluded that 22-20" was the best for them no reason for the midrange lengths. I have put alot of muzzle brakes on tactical rifles and cut barrels off to 20" my customers just like the low recoil and they wear ear protection any way. The brakes I install do not have openings on the bottom prone shooters do not like that. [/QUOTE]
