Good video.....but did anyone catch the error? Highlighted yellow or did I miss something?

Would the 20" rifle having a smaller objective scope and likely lower mount on it matter?

My 22" barrel after 90 rounds with 175 factory ammo.
This is for the last 11 shots
2872 avg
ES 60
SD 20

It would have to be 1" taller to make .5 moa difference. Example .300" will make a .1 moa correction at 500

If you're gonna run a supressor "rarely" I'd go 24". I like a 24" braked barrel on a magnum hunting rifle. Thats how I have my 7RM set up. If not a magnum, 20-22 is a good length for a hunting rifle for me.

24" Braked 7RM

Fired 10 more factory 175X's
22" barrel
2873 average
39 ES
13.4 SD
It's been pretty bad so far for ES, SD and velocity.
Accuracy has been about 1MOA for
10 rounds.

Remind me who's your barrel maker? That es and sd is pretty rough. But it is factory ammo so there's that.

20-22" is where I'm going to land. Might try a 18" later in the future with some 160's g bullets

I'm escorting back and forth right now. Once we burn up this factory ammo, I'm not sure what I will run. The 175 Berger, the 168, or the 180 hybrid. I may if I get really wild attempt to load the 180 eldm. I'm just not a huge Hornady fan so I don't run many of there bullets.

Don't get that wild

Boy I just reread my you'd think I'm drunk! I'm not even sure how my phone got escorting, and then later I used there instead of their! Dang I need to proof read!

Went to the range today. 35 rounds of factory 175. Fps started at 2860 and by the end of the day we were up to 2970. This was shots 5,6,7 on a brand new barrel. It is a shooter. This is the wife's rifle in a temp stock until her clymer gets delivered.

 

[Longtine88]

That's very nice. I would think the prc would push them past 3,000 for sure. Got one saum that pushers them to the 3,005' mark.

What barrel is it again
