[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 2310794, member: 24284"] You will loose velocity if you shorten the barrel. I am to the point that "I just don't get it". People buy or have built a rifle wanting to meet a velocity/accuracy goal. The next thing they want to do is make the barrel shorter because it handles better or they want to use a 'can'. When you do, you loose velocity. If you want a shorter barreled rifle that's now a .280AI, re-barrel to 7mm/08. It'll be much more efficient. [/QUOTE]
