[QUOTE="barnesuser28, post: 714382, member: 43468"] The reason i want a short barrel is i want this gun to be a do it all gun. Where we elk hunted this year we did a TON of bushwacking so thats the reason for a shorter barrel, but i also want to be able to reach out to 600-700 yards if i have to. And the 168 grain LRX moving 2850 fps at 2800 ft above sea level should get me out to about 900 yards before i get below 1600 fps. At 7000 ft i should be at 1080 yards with 1600 fps. So much farther than i will ever attempt a shot on a big game animal with a 8-9 lb rifle. [/QUOTE]
