Thread: Short barrel calibres?

Thanks for that gundoc.
So for a short barrel you want a fast powder ?
That would limit you to light for calibre bullets wouldnt it ?
I suppose that to get enough lead a bigger calibre is better ? Eg a 120gr 308 rather than a 120gr 260 ?

Now, is a short case just as good as a long case ? Eg comparing 30-30 308 and3006. Would the extra powder in the 3006 all be wasted in flame or would the ‘06 pig have a worthwhile edge over the 30-30 ?
