Nothing wrong with that, roughly 1000 f/lb energy and 1700 fps with a 150gr SST at that distance. Bullet drop is easy enough to dial for, judging wind is harder.

I’m all for short barrel syndrome in a hunting rifle it’s only a few more clicks of the scope and your there. The 12” 300 blackout is a pleasure to carry in mountains. In my other situation a long range 338 edge I wouldn’t want to go short than 26” and is a real dog carry in thick bush until I get into the open stuff.
