[QUOTE="cabelasken, post: 2284426, member: 117774"] I have shot the 284 in 22 and 23 and 24" barrel lengths and have settled on 23" as being the optimum for this caliber. With the 22" i lost between 40 and 60 FPS depending on bullet wt and the 24" only gained 20 to 40 FPS with the extra inch. My max velocity with with TSX bullets was 200 FPS than what I've been able to achieve in my two 7-08's. Per the formula I've developed based on bore diameter and case length, 22" is the optimum barrel length for the 7-08 [/QUOTE]
