    I agree with what your are saying, for my purposes I won't be shooting any further than 200-250m. Although I will see how it goes. I already have a 'superduper wsm' for a bit further @Kiwi Greg
    You raise a valid point, it may be that I will have a limit of 68 or 69 grain projectiles to keep a bit of speed, if I was to shorten it.
    I would be putting a suppressor on and looking to shorten it to even the balance
