[QUOTE="ResearchinStuff, post: 2791466, member: 67843"] 6 UM. The challenge with a short barrel is getting enough speed on a high bc bullet, going up in diameter and adding mass makes that a tougher and tougher challenge. Most high velocity, magnum class 6, 25, or 6.5s are capable of hitting 1000 yards above 1800 fps with high bc bullets and 20 in barrels. [/QUOTE]
