[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 2990901, member: 61747"] I’ll guess I’ll be the first to say that most people can’t shoot long range well enough where that extra 100 fps is going to make difference. A 24” barrel vs a 28” is about 100 fps. If you run a can you’ll want a shorter barrel. If you pack that thing around a lot, you’ll want a shorter barrel. I run cans on all my rifles and 18” plus a 6” can makes it 24. It is much more pleasant to me than when I packed around my 28” barreled rifles. In the end the effective range was only diminished a hundred or so yards and generally further then I should be shooting anyway. Point being the general population of shooters buying a factory rifle and using factory ammo are shooting inside 600, and that is extreme range for many of those. I’ve helped teach plenty of classes for long range hunters and there is some scary things going on in da woods. [/QUOTE]
