[QUOTE="ARlife4me, post: 2851400, member: 105694"] Would you have a 50bmg with a snub barrel? Probably not. Some choices are made by experience..........makes sense! Even if you were shooting bench would you have a 40" 20cal barrel? Probably not! Seems like some cartridges (regardless of bullet weight and non-factory standard) do better performance (not bullet performance) wise? Although it does take certain powders and amount also too hurl/push bullets down and out the barrel without lodging inside? Trying to get complete use of the powder in the cartridge for the barrel length to be optimum length. Like a 14" barrel on a 264wm..............losing performance on such a cartridge better suited for something longer as not to waste. [/QUOTE]
