[QUOTE="Deleted member 119066, post: 2257776"] Nice rifle if I owned that rifle, and someone told me to classify it I would probably call it a *canyon rifle*. I would call something like a Barrett fieldcraft a mountain rifle. Being this is a long range hunting forum there are plenty of big boomers here so many share your love for this heavier but stable platform I expect. welcome to the forum, your immediate need to trash older and beloved cartridges should make for an... interesting... reception. I actually like “short” barreled magnums, and have one, but I’m not fooling myself that I’m not giving up velocity still. Is it less per inch than my older cartridges? Not sure, being a scientist by trade there is zero way I could say that without burning many barrels in controlled experiments, my mind says I doubt it. I think the size of the bang rules all.
