Thread: Short barrel magnum calibres?

Here's an update of how things progressed.

I eventually cut the barrel to 21 inches and suppressed my rem mag with a dpt. Talked to a few people and got some reloader 23, 162eldx and loaded them to the same length as factory precision hunter ammo. Did a ladder test starting at 63.5grns and working upto 65.5 grns. All shot well but 65 grns shot exceptionally well. So loaded up another 15 of these and went to the range, zeroed at 100 then shot a group at 200. The 100yard group was 1 hole and 200yard group was. 393 of an inch and dropped about 2.6inches from my 100 yard zero which gives me a speed of approximately 2900fps (il verify this out further), but pretty stoked with the result.

Defintely don't regret chopping the barrel and suppressing as it's alot more pleasant to shoot now and accuracy improved.
