How long is your short barrel?

[redchinviking]

I think there's a little meat left on the bone as I did minimum load testing last year before season.

I bumped up a few tenths of H1k over 180 bergers and have it shooting 1.2-1.5 inches at 2820 at 300 yards.

APR built 7 saum running a TABC Ultra 7 out front.

So I've heard h1000 is to slow for short barrels with suppressors. Not apparently so! Any issues with unburned powder in the suppressor? Compressed load? Lots of data here to unravel.

It's the manners factory adjustable buttplate. I may be mistaken, but I think it's only offered on the manners CS-1 and CS-2 stocks.

Please post pics of your best group sizes at given yardage. Cartridge, component list, powder, bullet, load combo and velocity as well. Smallest group at the farthest yardage, with the shortest barrel wins!

Hate to be a party pooper but when I see a post like this I can't help but wonder why the person needs the loading data? Can't they figure out their own? My loading data, like factory is proprietary. I give it out and some idiot uses it carelessly and the gun blows up in his face I don't want to he held responsible.

My shortest was a 22" 280ai that I gave to my daughter last hunting season. I soon will have the replacement done. A 20" 6.5 Creed that will be suppressed. Intending to run the 85g Hammer Hunter at about 3500 fps. Haven't shot it yet, so no groups. For the first time I am excited about a Creed.

Interested in this. Im running a 20" 6.5 Creed with 123g AH at around 3050fps. What does the 85g at 3500fps do for you? Or is it just a different way to get to the same place? Just curious as im always looking for something to tinker with and try out. Thanks.
