[QUOTE="PRCLITE, post: 2101075, member: 77124"] I appreciate the reply but my goals are not conflicting. I'm looking to slow down a bullet that typically is traveling at 3200+ FPS out of a standard barrel length, yet lessen the barrel length which will slow it down, but still maintain equal to or better energy/speed as my 6.5PRC. I'm currently pushed a 143gr. ELD-X at 3130FPS. By shortening the barrel to say 20", I can have an overall barrel length of 26" or so which would be easier to handle through the woods and on hikes. I want a caliber that smokes the 6.5PRC so I have room to play with barrel length and not lose any overall performance compared to what I have now. [/QUOTE]
