   Hermitage liked post by Bagheera On thread : Where to measure barrel length?

   This is correct. It is quite a bit shorter than the barrel looks. For instance, the OAL of a .308 cartridge is 2.800" (therabouts) so a 20" barrel will only have about 17" of rifling and bullet...

    If you subscribe to barrel timing theory it’s likely due to the mv not being optimal for the barrel length. I use quickload and the barrel timing calculator for working up new loads. So far it has...
