[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1527100, member: 12995"] Any barrel can shoot any bullet...You just need the right twist to stabilize it, and a 1:8 should be more than adequate for a 7mm 175. Also you won't get the max performance (velocity) from it, like you would with the longer 26" barrel. I would go 24" barrel, at least a 3B contour, and a lightweight suppressor like that new Energetic Armament Vox. It's ridiculously light and quiet. Also, with a direct-thread mount setup, it's only 5.9" OAL. That's the can I plan on going with for my hunting rifles once I get some spare cash. [/QUOTE]
