Anybody own a 6BR with a 20-22" barrel?

If so, I'm curious to know what kind of velocities you've seen, especially with 105/107s.

Thanks!

Taking a look at my 6BR load in Quick Load and shortening from 26" to 20", looks like you loose 25fps/barrel-inch. A moderate load should get you around 2775fps in a 20" barrel.

Thanks a bunch! 2700fps from 20" would be just lovely.

Did that velocity come from a given powder, by chance?
