    Noisier, but not by as big a margin as a really short barrel. Mine is 20”. I find it doesn’t need suppression but haven’t used it in thick timber yet. It won’t get suppressed anyway. Leaving it as...

    they a lot like a .22lr on steroids .... 4times the projectile weight = more than 4 times the preformance.

    Cordite liked post by gonetropo On thread : CNC lathes
    CNC machines are like testing jigs for electronics, great if you want to do 100's or 1000's of something but useless for the occasional build or repair

    Cordite liked post by grandpamac On thread : The Maths of Recoil
    The powder turns into gas which has the same mass so still produces recoil based on its mass and velocity. A rifle with an extra long barrel is nicer to shoot as the blast is less due to slower...

    Cordite liked post by grandpamac On thread : The Maths of Recoil
