[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 76420, member: 12"] Just beware that Palma barrels are not run of the mill 30 cal barrels. Comparing them to standard 30 cal barrel is like apples and oranges. They are special tight bore barrels that are normally 30" long with 1-13 twist. They are made to shoot only one bullet, the 155. Extra 4-8" sure helps MV along with the tighter bore. Higher MV (2950 fps) helps them get to 1000. However, you are going to be hard pressed to get that MV out of a 22-26" normal 30 cal barrel. BH [/QUOTE]
