Nope. Might let the weekend warriors get their fix first. Not a fan of bumping into other hunters in the hills.

I can report 2800 fps from a 18" sporter weight barrel with 140 grn and 3000fps with 120gr and .5" groups. CFE 223 powder. You will do better Nathan F because I doubt you have a cataract in your...

No not really. Faster powder for shorter barrels is a wide spread belief but its a myth, its not how internal ballistics work. The best burn rate for max velocity is dictated by the cartridge and...

The reduced length of the barrel means that the expanding gases from the ignition of the powder have less time to drive the projectile forward so therefor the projectile will be travelling slower...

Minimal effect on stability, and you might lose 100 or so fps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Stability won't change, if done correctly accuracy potential will increase, you should lose around 150 fps depending on components used
