[QUOTE="Happyshooter, post: 2992339, member: 127025"] Kinda. two rifles with same 24" barrel shoots nearly same velocity. Cut down to 22" or even 20" it SEEMS like the PRCs lose less velocity per inch of barrel length loss. But like I said, I don't really like saying something is true until I do my own testing. Even though authorities on subjects say it's true. I've tried too many things in the past and found that the people we expect to know are mistaken. I'll give you an example. I was shooting two different 300 winmags with the exact same brand barrel, stock, trigger, and action. Except one was 26" and one was 24". The 24" shot faster every time I tested it. Made zero sense to me. I asked two very smart gunn guys and got two completely different answers. My people expect me to give them exactly what they want and I just don't depend on other peoples data or information now. [/QUOTE]
