Just bought a Browning BLR in .300 WSM. Why does Browning make it in 22 inch barrel? Even my Marline 336XLR in 30/30 has a 24 inch barrel. I like both guns, the BLR is alot lighter. Does Ballsistics decrease that much with Browing in this caliber with a short barrel?
............Nope!.........If my 16.5" barreled 300 WSM Ruger carbine, as proven by extensive chrony testing, can come to within 4.5% in total overall velocity loss to two 24" barreled 300 WSMs I compared it to (16.4 to 19.5 fps per inch), you can certainly expect with a high degree of certainty less a percentage going from a 24" barrel down to a 22" er!
