[QUOTE="jsmitt6, post: 2791291, member: 116361"] I have a Tikka magnum action sitting in a Stocky's VG Ultralite stock just begging to get a barrel spun on. I have a 20" 270ss and a 26" 30 Nosler for hunting rifles.. What should I consider? I shoot suppressed and have 30 and 338 cans, so caliber isn't an issue. Would love a shorter barrel if possible, the 20" on my 270ss is shorter than my 26" 30 nosler without any muzzle device! I've thought about doing the Redsnake or Mountain Tactical AICS bottom metal and going to a 338 Rum, a shorty 30 Nosler that is properly throated, or something in between. What would send a bullet fast enough to maintain 1600-1800 FPS and have enough energy for elk? [/QUOTE]
