[QUOTE="calling4life, post: 663261, member: 48454"] D) Insufficient information has been given, the questions cannot be answered. Or 1) This length is equal to the total length of the barrel with muzzle brake, minus the distance from the crown to the end of the muzzle brake. 2) This length is equal to the length of the barrel unbraked, plus the additional length gained by adding the brake. Or Figure out what you want from each gun and decipher the barrel length you need to do it, this answers question 1. The answer to question 2 is as easy as 2+2=4 I.E. Say you want to kill elk at 1,000 yards and YOU want 1200lbs of energy to do so. You are going to shoot x bullet and it needs y velocity at the muzzle to produce said amount of energy at a grand. Your barrel length before adding the brake will be the barrel length needed to get y, or greater. [/QUOTE]
