[QUOTE="kgunz11, post: 2521461, member: 5110"] You're going to get 300WSM recoil and 308Win performance is what I was saying. I did not mean to insinuate you were recoil sensitive. I guess my point is; when you cut a magnum barrel down, you lose a LOT of performance per inch and sometimes it makes sense to choose a different caliber because of that. I own quite a few suppressors. Speed kills, but I am not a speed freak. I look at the width of my balled up fist and wonder if that 4" of barrel length is worth 120fps of performance, and for me the answer is always no. I have short barrel standard bolt calibers like 308 and 6.5 Creedmoor. When I am getting into mag bolt face territory, that fist width of barrel is a non issue for me. Just sharing my thoughts for conversational purposes. [/QUOTE]
