- 26" Barrel: 2860 fps - This is what he was getting after 1,200 rounds (no suppressor)
- 22" Barrel: 2805 fps - This is what he was getting after 800 rounds (no suppressor)
Overall he only lost 55 fps after cutting off 4" of barrel,...
BALANCE has to be any real difference IMO.
The small case capacity does not need a long barrel. The chrono lists above bears that out.
As with other things Personal Preference is what counts.
