[QUOTE="JoePA, post: 23827, member: 913"] Thanks for the discussion. MM - I have a 300/221 with a 1-8" barrel and I've never had any bullet stabilization problems from subsonic (~1050fps) loads with 220 or 240g SMK's. But, I've never shot this load at ranges greater than 100 yards, so my experience is limited. I think I going to use my barrel to build a fun gun - a 7.62x39 or a 30BR, put it on an X-Course stock and have fun at the club beating up the steal with big bullets. I feel like I'm trying to make a barrel fit a project it wasn't made for - I need to start from scratch and order myself another barrel with my 3-600yd shots as the primary objective per the advice of BountyHounter. Thanks to all for your guidance and experience. -Joe [ 11-21-2002: Message edited by: Joe G ] [/QUOTE]
