[QUOTE="highridge1, post: 831430, member: 10327"] Velocity and barrel length varies from gun to gun. Never really heard of higher velocity in a shorter barrel though. Usually it seems like about 15-35 fps per inch velocity gain with barrel length increase.It's just like how some guys believe a .338 300 gr SMK is just a target bullet and not good for hunting ,when in reality it flat hammers game with great performance.To many people seem to read something on the internet or outdoor life and just think that's the way it is and they don't have the hands on experience.It's all about what works for a guy and what his own results really are.
