    500m+ is interesting for shooting with a target shooting rig - long, heavy barrel and a big heavy scope, bipod and bag... For hunting at that distance, with a lightweight rifle, it will require...

    I assume your a new shooter with little experience in the field. If this is correct then please remember that shooting game at long range is not as easy as point and shoot. Once you get out past say...

    I'd be thinking of running 123gr in a handy 19", you'll hit steel that range no problem but for hunting out to those ranges I'd be thinking something heavier than a 6.5CR, but each to there own.

    Just read your post properly, you'll plink out to that range no problem at all with a 19".

    if it was still 24" would it be accurate enough for 650-700meters???? and there is answer to your question.

    A shorter barrel of the same diameter is relatively stiffer, and will have less 'whip' as a result of vibration, potentially reducing one of the variables that affect accuracy.

    You will be fine, just dial for it. That’s a Tikka 6.5cm 20inch at 300m and I’m a shit shooter… 2600fps Tikka are slow 220560

    My 260 with a 19" barrel is doing 2700 with 140s and 2800 with 130s. Id imagine 2600fps with 140s would be fairly easy with the Creedmoor. Accuracy won't be an issue unless the gunsmith messed it...

    Assuming one rifle with a 24" barrel and another with a 19" barrel could shoot the same groups at 100m and the only difference was 100fps in velocity, then at 600m you'll have a bit more drop and a...
