So, seems like 18” barrel should get you to 2800~ with the factory 108s. Think I’ll go with that direction.
That's what I'm seeing reported. 2800 factory and 2900 handloaded depending on barrel and elevation. Might be a good length to be at for a short carry gun that can still reach out to 650 yards while still above 1800 fps.

So, anyone know of any good Carbon barrel manufactures making prefits in the 18” length? Looks like proof stops at 22”.

Get an 18” proof blank and have it chambered. By far the fastest option.
That’s what I’d like to do. Just seems like everyone is out of stock and weirdly enough, Proof isn’t showing 18” anymore on their website.

Decisions…. 16, 18, or 20 inch barrel with my 6 creed build. Terminus Apollo action, ace #3 contour barrel 7.5 twist, XLR element 4.0 chassis.

Going to use a suppressor? If so, 16 or 18” is nice.

I went 18” on mine and have been very happy with it.
