    My barrel at 24" can produce some speed but It has a sweet spot running it slower so I don't see the point fussing around with it when it is just a bit extra wound on the turret if needed.
    Don't think I have a fast barrel especially when there are standard .260s out there running the same speeds I get or faster.
    I like the caliber but would have been just as happy with a standard 260 or even better a 6.5-06

    What speeds are you getting out of yours comfortably?
