It is a crying shame the longer barrel buys don't gain steam.

All SBRs give up velocity, true, but sleek 6.5mm bullets help retain it. (Not that most get an SBR thinking long-range, but it's the correct concept for a military application, for example, with a compact weapon facing variable engagement distances.):: 6.5 GRENDEL Deer and Targets :: 6mmARC Targets and Varmints and Deer :: 22 ARC Varmints and Targets

Any of you guys get chrono data, it'd be greatly appreciated to average it out over several barrels to add to the knowledge of The Horde.:: 6.5 GRENDEL Deer and Targets :: 6mmARC Targets and Varmints and Deer :: 22 ARC Varmints and Targets
