[QUOTE="Grumulkin, post: 914332, member: 29281"] I've shot quite a few supposedly rifle cartridges in handgun length barrels from 13 to 15 inches. These have included 223 Remington, 223 Remington AI, 7mm/08 Remington, 308 Winchester, 30/06 Springfield, 375 H&H Magnum, 444 Marlin and 45-70 Government and have loaded for all except one of them (the 45-70). Conclusions: 1. You will not be able to decrease muzzle blast/flash significantly by powder selection. 2. Use the same powder you would use in rifle length barrels. [/QUOTE]
