[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 501181, member: 25488"] if you don't mind my asking, Why do you limit yourself at only 2950 fps in a hunting situation when you have a 32 inch barrel? And, if you know, why is my 26 inch barrel getting almost the exact same velocity as you are getting with 32 with the same load save the primer, I used fed 210 match. Very good load by the way! I can see limiting it for target use to preserve barrel life. But the wear you will get working up a hunting load to higher velocities will be minimal and can help some with wind drift at extreme ranges while stretching you maximum range. anyway, I was just under the impression that velocity was the main reason for the longer barrels. I can get 2950 quite easily with my 23 inch barrel 6.5-284. Not criticizing, I am just asking seriously. [/QUOTE]
