6CM barrel length recommendations

[Hnthrdr]

This is Rokslide, all people think about is where their bullet hits 1800fps and think they are good to go.

Guys really ought to look at the wind number as much as terminal range. When 1mph of wind is moving your bullet more than a tenth you really should think about what your doing shooting that far

Facts! Which is why really short barrels make a lot of sense… unless you are forced to use “non toxic” projectiles then the longer barrels make more sense

16” with an OG6-S is the way…

With a current Alaska safe hunting (wet) load of 116 TMKs, the gun maintains 1,800 FPS past 800 yards.

Thank you. that puts me well beyond my shooting capabilities. Appreciate the response!

16.5 Inch Proof CF barrel with Omega gets me 2757 with Prime 107SMK's.

Nice, I am hoping this Proof barrel speeds up a little.
