Perhaps this has been covered elsewhere on the site, I did a search and didn't find anything...
I have a 26" 1:9 barrel taken off of an early 2000s vintage 12FV, and when I measure to the lands with a 75gr Hornady HPBT I get ~2.295".
I recently purchased a 20" 1:9 barrel taken off of an 11 Hog Hunter, and when I measure to the lands with the same bullet I get ~2.395".
Does anybody definitively know if Savage went to a longer 223 throat on their newer rifles?
