[QUOTE="southpa, post: 3058642, member: 65823"] No I'm pretty sure I never claimed that. It's widely known that shorter barrels net slower speeds. If you read my posts you'll see the reference I made to a 28 schnoz with a 26" vs a 28"-30" thereby showing that I'm not claiming a shorter barrel will net the same speeds. I've maintained that you will need to chamber up according to the bullet weight and performance you expect out of it with short barrels. Inferring again, that shorter barrels net slower speeds. I also explained (like others) that if your barrel is shorter, i have found it will usually shoot the same powder equally as well as longer barrels. Meaning that whatever powder gives you best accuracy and speeds in a longer barrel will more than likely give you the best accuracy and speeds in the same chambering with a shorter barrel. Not that it will give you the SAME speeds or accuracy. [/QUOTE]
