[QUOTE="FURMAN, post: 1487988, member: 26535"] This will be my last response in regards to barrel length. I think you need to do some more reading. Longer barrel length is good for everything from the 204R to the 6.5 Creedmoor and even more important in overbore cartridges. I could not care less what you think. The facts are the facts barrel length affects speed. The only reason I responded is for newer readers. The newer powders you are referring to actually exaggerate this topic. The slower the powder the more you can use(providing you have the case capacity) and the more velocity you can achieve and the longer barrel will help even more. Yes more powder needs more room to be used thus the benefit from the longer barrel. If this were not the case, if only pressure mattered I suspect we would all just be running the 6br case in our favorite caliber at max pressure. Bryan Litz has done a few barrel cut tests which are a great read. Rifleshooter.com has done quite a few. When you prove physics wrong let me know. I will be building an 16" 30 br throated for 215 Bergers and killing things 2miles away. In the mean time can we please get this back on topic? [/QUOTE]
