[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 2027443, member: 13732"] Unknown munitions recently built a 300rum on a bat vampire action(4" mag box), 20" carbon six 9tw. They have found accuracy @ 3100fps with 98gr N570 using Berger 215H. They were still picking up speed as they were stepping up powder at the end so that shows it was getting good burn % on the charge load. I see no issues with running a short barrel as long as your velocity expectations aren't super high. I have started going to shorter barrels myself for supressor use and mobility in tighter conditions, makes the weapon more versatile for mountain packing or plains shooting. [/QUOTE]
